I snooped around twitter a little bit and no one seems to have gotten a shipping notice yet. My guess is we wake up to the notices tomorrow.

Lots of shipping notices here in OZ. My understanding is that all 40mm are local and 44mms are coming from China. US should be getting 40mm shipping notifications next few hours.
 
For those who can confirm their watch has shipped, what does FedEx show for the dimensions of your package? I ordered a watch and two bands (3 items) and I now have two tracking numbers in the FedEx app. Both are showing dimensions of 14x1x4 and 1lb which leads me to believe each shipment is a band. Watch has estimated delivery of Sept 25-29 but shows “preparing to ship” just like the bands do but bands are confirmed for Friday.
I would be willing to bet that one tracking number is for your watch and the other tracking number is for the extra bands that you ordered.

18 Sep, so it's on track.

That’s the odd thing...apple still says preparing for shipment yet my UPS app shows the package in China. Hopefully we will see movement today but in previous years my apple products are sent from China to Memphis, TN on Thursday then they ship to me on Friday. I’m assuming that since it’s still in China, I may not be receiving it until next week.

Mine is being shipped from Milan, and since I ordered a "standard/boring" combo, I guess they had these options in stock for launch day.

My status on Apple hasn't been changed either actually - it still says preparing for shipping :)
 
I doubt the retail stores will have any launch day stock, especially this year ... if they do it’ll probably be the lower-end models without cellular and probably not in the new colors.

My local stores will have walk-in stock available tomorrow ....... what makes you think it will be low end models ?
 
Has anyone worked out whether there’s a pattern for the UPS tracking reference?
 
40MM Product Red GPS+Cellular with Red sport loop. Ordered within a couple of minutes after presentation. Delivery date still says 28th. I was charged overnight on Tuesday. I’m in the UK. Really hoping for a delivery tomorrow.
