You go with regular or large? Went with a regular hopefully it fits. Don’t have huge wrist.
Yeah you have made the right choice. Large is massive as lots of people have posted in the bands thread. I have a medium loop already and its a perfect fit.
You’re lucky if your watch is going with UPS. DHL is a disaster.
For anyone waiting for your watch to ship, I ordered a blue one with a ship date of October 16-23. I went on Best Buy yesterday and saw they had it, ordered it online and it’s already been shipped with delivery tomorrow.
I have the same estimated ship date. The problem with Best Buy for me is that their configs are only sport bands, but I want a sport loop (the velcro one). And no I'm not going to buy another band just to get the one that I want, I can wait a few weeks instead of spending $50 extra. Oh and I'm also doing a trade-in of my Series 3.
well even though I’m with DHL... Apple stated from day One “2-7 October”. Just because we are inpatient an can see that something is Happening electronically, it doesn’t mean that it’s a disaster. They are in schedule and as far as I understood some got it before.
As a PSA for anyone still waiting on an SS order this week that's sat on "processing", the Apple Store on Amazon now has full stock of all kinds of SS and other models, 40mm and 44mm. I've just cancelled my Apple order, placed one with Amazon and it's arriving tomorrow as opposed to god knows when!
YMMV depending on where you are (I'm in the UK) but it might be worth checking out! Cheers and good luck everyone else!

I asked Apple when they are going to ship my order, which is expected to arrive on Oct 2 according to the website. They said that the scheduled shipping date is Oct 1 and the AW should arrive on time (so the next day). Status still says "Processing" btw. Let's see, if it will work out.
44mm Natural Titanium with Graphite Milanese loop.
Ordered 9.21.2020
Shipped 9.24.2020
Expected Delivery (NC USA) 9.28.20
Currently departed Jiaxing.
TLDR;
Yay! I made it. 8:30pm local time delivery to my house
The long story:
Yesterday I had to go to the office to help people get stuff out of there as we are staying remote until at least Jan.
Knowing this, I decided to have UPS deliver my watch to the CVS that is next to my office.
Tracking said that it would be delivered between 9am and 12:45pm
At around 11am that changed to "By 9:00pm" WTF!
Well around 6:00pm I was done at work and tired of waiting around. UPS gps tracking showed the little truck driving around and around....getting closer and closer....so I stayed until 7:00 talking to the manger of the store.
UPS guys comes and no watch!
He said there was a shipping sticker to forward to CVS but it's not on the truck!
So I drive home defeated.
Around 8:30pm the door rings and its the UPS guy (different one) to deliver the watch. Weird.
It does have the other sticker on it but apparently got on the wrong truck?
Anyway I have the watch, and also an email from UPS to go to CVS to pick up my package.
Tracking shows that it is sitting at CVS to be picked up.
LOL UPS
See all ya'll at iPhone night
I ordered a Series 6 44 Silver Aluminum GPS with a white Sports Band "Normal" (one with holes) on Sept 21 (Western State, USA) with minimum expected delivery Oct 6. Today is Sept 29. Dates have not budged. I suspect it is because I ordered a normal band. I did not want to have to go through the "is it going to fit" drama. Sometime between now and Christmas I will visit an Apple Store and get sized ... and then give the appropriate hints accordingly 🤞
I called Apple. They basically said ‘It is still processing’ and that they could change the band. New estimate was Nov. 3. I said that was ridiculous when I ordered it on Sept. 15.
Anyways, found the same watch at Best Buy. Ordered today. Delivery on Thursday. Canceled the Apple order.
Went with Nike too. Which band did you get? I was torn between Obsidian Mist and Black Blue Mango. Went with Obsidian.
I was torn between Spruce Aura / Vapor Green and Black Blue Mango. I just couldn't make up my mind so I got the watch with Spruce Aura and the Black Blue Mango bracelet on the side. Both are terrific! 😍 but I think Black Blue Mango will fit better with the stuff I wear. I hesitated with Obsidian Mist too but I already have a couple grey-ish bands and wanted something new...
Digging the color coordination with the face. Do you have separate faces that you can switch between when you change bands?
