We're stuck in customs in Shanghai. Mine is the same.

Same here.

Same here, Apple says delivery on Monday 9/28... don’t know what the F it’s going to be doing for the next week

Not to worry - Apple shows the same for mine, but UPS has a tentative delivery date of 9/23. Others have had similar dates and received them early, so I expect we'll get them sooner than 9/28.

My watch departed Louisville at 15:33 for DFW with a scheduled delivery for Monday 9/21. I am very happy with the shipping time for this item. Not so much for the iPad Pro that I have on order. The average wait time is 4-5 weeks and I am on day 23 right now.
 
I am in the Sept 29 - Oct 1 window; Apple still shows preparing to ship but UPS is showing an inbound package (with no ETD).

Apple won’t show shipped until the package enters the U.S.
Apple routinely shows shipped at or around time of origin scan in China. I got my shipped notification today and Apple Store order status switched to shipped shortly after the origin scan time. This also has been my experience with previous Apple orders that have shipped from China.
 
Not sure if anyone has had a similar situation but with the Apple Watch Edition 44mm: since it comes with a M/L band included, has anyone had any luck bringing the band to an Apple Store for a S/M swap?
 
Not quite sure. Some clarity would be nice, as I find it unusual customs would hold back Apple shipments for 24 hours. Maybe UPS is just being slow on the scans?
Sorry to tell you but I have had Apple shipments held in customs for 2-3 + days. Delivered past the estimated date. Hope that is not the case for you
 
Mine left Louisville, KY at 4:54 PM today on route here. I could have driven down there and picked it up if they allowed such a thing.

As it is I changed the delivery and will pick it up at the UPS Center in Urbana tomorrow morning. That way I don’t have to wait all day for a delivery “sometime” before 9:00PM.

Mine was supposed to be delivered a week from tomorrow but I‘ll be getting it tomorrow. 99% of the time Apple under promises and over delivers. So I would think that most of the watches will be delivered on or before the date Apple gives.
 
Looks like my 2 AWs are on their way to the Bay Area - As soon as they are delivered I will return them to the Walnut Creek Apple Store

if you are in the area - I’m returning the following

44 Titanium Black Woven Band Size 7
44 SS Black Woven Band Size 7
