I'm praying it gets shipped out soon. It'll most likely be an over-night delivery.
Hang in there, yours might be NEXT!
We shall see. Most Watch editions are coming from China right now so I wouldn't be suprised your's will be coming from China. The SBTi 44mm that I ordered for my dad, I have the tracking number and it's coming from Shanghai, and have the delivery date for 10/15/2020.
 
Good to see. Wish I could say the same! My SG Nike S6 is still showing the same Oct. 13-15 date expected arrival date and the UPS logs haven’t updated since it start shipping end of last week in Shanghai.

No idea what’s going on with my order. Potentially it’s just not updating on UPS’s end.

My Watch has made it to the east coast and UPS is saying it will be delivered today, a day early!

Well, originally it was Oct 16-23, then it was Oct 13-15, thenApple emailed me Oct 9th.

Hope i get the tracking number soon maybe I’ll be able to relax lol
 
I ordered SE 40mm GPS Space Gray w/Cypress Green Sport Band, on Oct 5 (afternoon). It's shipping from China to USA. Label Created/Shipped/Departed on Oct 6 via UPS. It's In-Transit as of Oct 6 10:52 PM EDT, "at the clearing agency awaiting final release". Apple's Order Details states it's scheduled to arrive Oct 15. UPS's text at 6:12 AM today states it "will be delivered on 10/12/2020 between 14:45 and 18:45". However, the UPS Tracking web site states "Please check back later for scheduled delivery." If it arrives on Oct 12, that's only 1 week after ordering. We'll see what happens.

I feel bad for those who are waiting a VERY LONG TIME!!
It looks like mine has cleared customs, having arrived in ZhengZhou. Based on other comments, I'm surprised that it made it through "clearing agency" so quickly, if that's what it means.

Can anyone verify this with their experience of China shipping?

Not till the 15th. So, I was hoping for much quicker, lol.
After I received the tracking, it initially said 10/15/2020 and stated (Tentative). So you will likely get it then.

When I pre-ordered the SBTi for my personal use, Apple status said expected around 9/24/2020-9/26/2020. Tracking said at first 9/21/2020 and later changed but then changed back to 9/21/2020 and I got it on the 21st. So I would say whatever date you see on the UPS, you'll likely get it then. Since it's in Shanghai, CN, it will need to go through customs and usually that can take some time.

Is customs the same as "clearing house"?

I hope Apple today and they told me it's not coming from China. It's coming from a State. Not sure how true that is hmm.

Well almost all apple products are made in China/Vietnam. But depending on stock level at their warehouse, it's possible. If you have Fedex you can see if any labels are created. Most of my orders that I place from Apple normally comes from Fedex and directly from their warehouse. My watch is coming from China. And it's freshly made, which is cool.

There is not a date on the UPS tracking, I got that date from Apple. On the UPS tracking it says "Please check back later for scheduled delivery." but its on the way to Shanghai right now. Should be about there.

Yea you'll likely get it on the 15th or before it. Based on my last tracking for the watch, Label was created on 9/18/2020 (9/17/2020 in U.S time), and got delivered on 9/21/2020. For the other watch I ordered, Label was created on 10/8/2020 (10/7/2020 US time), so there is a slight chance that it could come on Monday 10/12/2020.

My was originally scheduled for delivery 10/14-10/21. Then it said 10/11-14. Now Apply says 10/9 but UPS has no anticipated date. As of 12:08am it left south korea sorting facility. I'm hoping I still get it tomorrow but I doubt it.

When you look at your account on Apple.com, click on the tracking info on your order. It will redirect to UPS if the package has shipped.
Yes that's if your status changes to shipped. But you can also track a package even before the Apple status changes to ship. Just like the watch I ordered. It wasn't marked shipped till middle of the night and yet it showed up on UPS My choice yesterday evening.
