Hey guys so I ordered my watch, Apple Watch Series 7, Stainless Steel with Milanese Loop. I got a ship date of November 1st-8th and was thinking it would be nice to have a thread for just our group to keep updates on. Anyone else in this group?

I have 2 blues on order. For this one shown below, it's Nov 2 - 9... Not exactly 1-8 but close enough?

Confirmation email received: 10:13am Central Time, or 3 hrs + 13 min after ordering went live at 7:00am,

I wanted this one to be identical to the first I ordered immediately at 7:00am
(blue 45mm with woven blue Solo)
Confirmation email: 07:10am (10 min after go live)
Ship date of Oct 26-28,

but that combination of Series 7 45 mm blue case + blue woven solo was not orderable at all 3 hours later :-(. Looks like it's still not orderable.

I'm hoping I can trade the sport loop above for the one with orange side trim instead of grey + navy stripe. At least that band would match one of my fave simple faces. However it was only orderable for the 41mm size, not the 45mm size.
 
I have a 45mm Gold Stainless with Milanese on order with that exact range starting November 1st. Interesting to see another batch starting November 2nd.
I found it very odd that the gold stainless with Milanese wasn’t a default option. I needed to frantically use the watch studio to make it. Graphite and Silver had it as an option, but at least on Apple’s site I couldn’t find that config! (BestBuy seems to have it)

I have a 45 mm Graphite SS with Milanese Loop ordered shortly after the preorders went live with Nov 1-8 arrival date.
 
I ordered the Silver Stainless with Milanese loop for that same delivery date range too.

Before I tended toward SB SS or SB titanium. I wanted a watch that looked less dark foreboding. It should match a wider range of bands too. Hope it holds up well.

I ordered gps midnight black aluminum with a sport loop right at 8 am EST and had a 10/15 delivery date. But after thinking abou it and figuring out some of the carrier deals, I decided to try cellular again and a different band (leather link), so I cancelled my original order and am now in the 11/2-9 camp. I don’t mind waiting but am hoping that Apple under promises/over delivers as it often does on delivery dates. May also check for in store possibilities on or around launch day as I live in NYC and there are so many stores (and not so many tourists these days).
 
I placed my order at 5:11 AM since I had to do some 'homework' on matching band. The titanium case and link bracelet are something I don't have.
