Got my Series 6 GPS this morning via Fed Ex after ordering on Wednesday night. My early Christmas present to myself
Did it make it??
mine updated finally with a delivery date if this Thursday. Still in China and just cleared customs.
Nope. It arrived in Dublin (Ireland) at 6.40am this morning thought it might go out for delivery but no. Hopefully in the morning!! Tracking still says check back later for delivery status, but it’s here in the country so hopefully I’ll get it tomorrow morning!! Getting excited now! But was disappointed it never got here today! Lol
My status just switched from 9th of December to "arriving soon" and than I got a text by DHL that it is supposed to arrive tomorrow. 
Solid week earlier if it actually happens! Yay!
Now apple also states 2ed of December. Yay.
And now processed by DHL in Amsterdam. <3

My watch is at home waiting for me! I am so excited to finally have an Apple Watch!
Hopefully it’s there soon for you if not already...
Once mine cleared customs, they moved fast. Went through Alaska, to Tennessee (if I remember right), and now it is in the closest large town to me. Delivery was moved up from Thursday to tomorrow. Sadly, I’m on a business trip and won’t be home until Friday. Oh well, two more days of ‘enjoying the wait’
I ordered (11/20) and received (11/24) a AW6 40mm GPS/Cellular. I ordered from www.apple.com, used a valid credit card, saw the hold on my card, but was never charged for the AW6. Anyone else experience this? The invoice on www.apple.com states the correct credit card and that it is paid, but no charge processed by my bank.
Didn’t come! Total disaster. Was still waiting, it said it was in Dublin. So I called UPS, they said the package has been lost and I need to start a claim. 😔☹️ So I contacted Apple immediately, they said because the due date on it is 3-10 December they can do nothing till the 10 December. So I was like ok, ye great, that sucks. Ok so fast forward to dinner time today I checked UPS again it said delivered. WTF???????! So I contact Apple and they look it up and it says delivered and signed for by me?! WHAT!! So they said they have to investigate the matter and will get back to me in 2-3 working days! Man I’m so mad but also feel like cr*p, that was my Christmas present, so ye, no Christmas present this year I guess. How can UPS do this? They either stole my watch or delivered it to someone that wasn’t me. I don’t know what to do. UPS are lying, Apple says oh but UPS says you got it today. They are making me feel like a liar! I didn’t get my Apple Watch and now I gotta wait and see what Apple says. Man, great end to the worst year ever....
How on earth did you get an Apple Watch in 4 days man? I was waiting 4 weeks for mine. How did you do that? Even looking at them now they are gone into January...
What a bummer! That does seem to be a capstone to 2020 for you... Sounds like UPS delivered to the wrong address.
Not to rub salt in the wound, but an update on mine. Delivered yesterday but I’m still out of town. Fly home tomorrow so 🤞 the band fits.
I got my Apple Watch in 4 plus days from when I ordered it. It would have been faster but Thanksgiving was the day after I ordered it.
I did not have to sign for my Apple Watch. COVID restrictions I guess.
let’s hope it’s just with a neighbor.
i am certain this will be cleared. Absolut worst case write a mail to Tim. They do get read (by someone) and IF phone support is to incompetent to solve the issue you will get a call from someone who is at a higher level. — earlier this year my 4000€ iMac had issues due to apples system. Phone support said I had to either pay it twice and get the extra money back after the computer finally had been delivered or I had to cancel the order of two computers (of wich one I did not order) and reorder (wich would have bumped me another 3—4 weeks back). Mails to Tim and Derrida were the only way to fix it, I spend hours in Telefonsupport with Apple, my bank and my debit card provider and only mails to Tim and dereida got me help that made things move forward.
Who is dereida? Is that deirdre? The new woman in sales and marketing? It’s a hard name to spell hahaha All the Irish names are! 😄 Well, I was totally bummed out yesterday but I guess it happens, people are losing their lives and covid is everywhere, guess I can wait a few weeks for new watch. Not the end of the world. I’ll wait and see what support say to me and take it from there I guess. Thanks for the help!
FYI if anyone wants to get one as a gift, Target is selling gift cards for 10% off. So you can buy a $500 gift card and basically save $50 on the watch.
Received the trade in kit packaging to send in my current Apple Watch, series 3, in ready for the Series 6 that arrives on December 15. I guess I'll send in my old watch at the end of the week.
I think they designed this process so you can keep the old one until the new one arrives. Ask Apple Support.
I was told I will have two weeks to return the old one, from when I receive my new watch.
Unfortunately my watch has been in Shanghai since Friday night with delivery exception of “delayed in transit” and no new date yet.
Just received a notification that my watch is in Shanghai, delayed in transit, and delivery date is unavailable at this point.
Anybody else get similar information? Thanks
I don’t have that but I’m still waiting on an order that went to UPS Nov 21st. Mine got stuck in China and right now is in Louisville with a import scan. Hoping that it comes tomorrow, but China is a huge delay right now.
Thanks for your reply. My original date was 12/23-12/24. When it got shipped Apple said 12/15 and UPS said 12/11 originally, so I guess I am still ahead
Glad you are getting yours tomorrow.
Holy cow! Thank you so much for that information. I emailed Tim and Deirdre and just got a call from Apple asking about my email to Tim Cook! They said he will take care of this situation and make sure I get my Apple Watch! Man... I thought that was just a long shot, holy cow, Tim Cook read my email!!! I’m blown away! Way to go Apple!! I have even more love for them now...
