Got a shipped email this morning... and .... it was my band :(. Nothing in UPS or FedEx for the watch, Apple still says 25-29. Oh well, I guess I was right about tempering expectations.


What was the size of your package according to fedex? My account also shows just the band as shipped and the watch is still showing 25-29. But the package is 13x4x2 in and weighs 2 pounds. I find it hard to believe just a band and it's box weighs that much.
 
Hoping for sooner. We shall see. Also, looking at the Nike sport loops for an extra band. I like the Obsidian Mist and the Spruce Aura, but not sure if they are more feminine than in the photos. Thoughts/opinions?View attachment 954445
Was hoping to wake up to “Shipped”, but no such luck. Charge still pending on my Apple Card, and still “Preparing” with 25-29th. Would have been nice to get it tomorrow so I can transfer my current to my fiancée, then have the weekend to play with the 6.

Mine says 14x2x4 in. and 1 lbs / 0.45 kgs.
 
I got a UPS thing for a delivery tomorrow but no shipment notification from apple. Mine was sept 29-oct1 in canada. I'm also expecting another package so it's really hard to tell. The other one is definitely UPS, this one could be fed ex or ups. My past purchases in canada have been fed ex....

It's coming from Illinois. So who knows. Probably the other thing. Not getting my hopes up.
 
So for all you sports fans that were contemplating going to the Apple store tomorrow (Friday) to purchase one versus wait...(I know I was, sept 25 was a date to far).. here in MA the stores are open but had been requesting you get shopping appointments. They have blocked off all appointments on Friday. So expect a madhouse. or. actually, a very very long spaced out line with only few people allowed in at a time. will be interesting to see if they are efficient enough to actually ask what you want to buy while in line and take care of it before you actually get in.
 
Can those of you who have UPS My Choice hits, could you look at the reference numbers listed and see if you see a relationship to the order.
thanks

I still haven’t been charged and my order still hasn’t moved from processing. Thinking something is wrong - but if i place a new order i’ll get bumped. Currently estimated Oct 1st 😭

Slow boat: Still says "BY 9/25" via UPS

My Watch and additional blue solo band both shipped via FedEx and are due to arrive tomorrow (U.S.). I got two separate emails from Apple confirming shipments, so they are sent separately for some reason.

Same boat, minus the fiance; my wife bought her own. Congrats on engagement.
 
My new watches are about 45 minutes from my house at the Fed-Ex distribution center but aren’t going to be delivered until tomorrow.
That's typical protocol - held until launch day by the carriers. Though every launch some lucky people get theirs a day or two early.
 
**SIGH**
Been on this status since I ordered five minutes after they went live. Very jealous of those who had way later dates and are seeing movement.

This is the first time I ordered on launch day. I usually wait a month or so but I had to have the Navy Blue Series 6 which means I’ll have to get a Navy Blue phone which ever size that is.

I have 7 reference numbers for my watch. 2 are identical, 1 is my phone number, 2 others also look like phone numbers I don’t recognize, and the other 2 are combos of letters and numbers.

Edit - one of the reference numbers are my Apple order number exactly.

Usually either your phone number or your order number (minus the last 2 digits) is one of the reference numbers and you can find your order on the ups site by reference number; of course my watch is coming by FedEx and their app gave me an alert along with the Apple shipping email.
