OMG I just checked the online store again and I was able to order it for pick up in 2 hours! I just cancelled my online order which was still sitting at processing. So happy, especially since I am leaving for camping later today

Same here. Ordered my 44mm Stainless Steel Graphite with black Sport Band for pickup at 10:45am here in Cologne ;-)
 
Give me answers Internet.

On the plus side for the solo loop, if you're a size 4 you can get yours in September.

I printed out apple's measuring tool before ordering solo loop. I couldn't find my proper wrist size because of all this pre-ordering rush, my hands were shaking, coffee was spilling, credit cards were flying out of my wallet. Ordered size 11 in panic which is delivering today which i requested to hold at FedEx. I am sure its not my size.

Seems to be the braided solo loop holding up most orders. Not available anywhere for pickup near me. Re-ordered a Milanese instead as I wanted one anyway with collection first thing this morning. I’ll pick up the braided solo at a later date.
 
May I ask what time zone you’re in and how late in the day you received the shipment status update? It’s early evening on the west coast here and I’m still in “preparing” mode.

I got the shipment notification from the Apple Store app this morning around 8am PST. I’m in Los Angeles.

So much for preordering. Could have waited and got one from BBY or Amazon. Oh, well.

Still seems strange being stuck on “Preparing” when the order was placed within minutes of the store going back up.
I don’t want the band that comes with the watch from BBY or Amazon. I’ll wait until Oct 1-5 for my Red Sport Loop which is coming with my Red 40mm watch

Did you receive your "your pick up is ready" e-mail yet? The Apple Store does not open until 10 am in Berlin so I am assuming they will be cutting it close and do not send it out before 10 ...
 
Did anybody have this happen to them. I ordered the blue 44 mm watch on Verizon, but when I checked out and it sent me a confirmation it says 40 mm?
