It WAS available in the Philly area last Fri, even Sat...but sold out eventually by 12-1pm. I have not seen it anywhere in the nearby stores this week so far. 😒

I did stop by my local Apple Store, really wanted to see how it looks before I get it...whew, I admit I do like it, how it fits and looks on my wrist.. Site stated it was "not available". of course I asked 2 employees if they had it in stock.

(My wallet thanked me today! LOL...but I'll check tomorrow morning)

No luck in NYC area. Haven't seen the in stock since they ran out about Sat(24th). Sounds like local stores aren't getting regular deliveries.

They're around. I passed on one at WTC on Mon. I picked mine up from 5th Ave on Tue. If you're only looking for trail loop, you're not likely to find anything. From my post earlier, here's how I found mine in NYC:

Pro-tip: find the one that you want, scroll all the way to the bottom of the page. Where it says Pickup, you'll see something like "Currently unavailable at Apple YourNearestStore". Click the name of the store. Enter your zip code and Search.

Now leave this tab open. Revisit this tab regularly, and just hit "Search" again to see if any new inventory came in.

At least in NYC, the ones that seem to be popping up in stock are the ones with White Ocean bands. Refreshed a few times this morning, saw new stock, and ordered for pickup.

looking for any, actually. What time did the WTC one show up for you out of curiousity. Thanks :)
 
WTC showed up around 6pm on Monday. 5th Ave showed up around 9am on Tuesday.

You're going to have the best luck if you do your search with Ocean bands. Both Mon and Tue were both Ocean White.
 
Picked mine up at local apple store yesterday. Did not show as "in stock" until about 2-3pm in the afternoon so it seems random on when store stock updates on apple.com

In the app or on the website? App doesn’t seem to refresh like this.

yeah lots of small green alpines around though only 1 left in the bronx. I also saw a small orange alpine earlier this afternoon. This is searching NYC area stores.
Yeah you're right several just showed up with small Green Alpine.

I can’t find any in the Chicagoland area. Been checking the app sporadically for the last three days.

Boilingbrook Best Buy said they had one and after they took my money they said the store was our of stock. 🤬. Doesn’t even say when I’ll get it. I’ll cancel that as soon as find one in the  store app.
 
It's basically been impossible to find in Denver. Right now there are literally zero in the entire state of Colorado. The closest ones are almost 500 miles away in Omaha. There was an orange alpine one closer for almost an hour this afternoon, which was the first I had seen all week.
 
Thanks. I managed to order a large alpine band ultra. Pick it up tomorrow. I want the orange band in large but I can’t find that in stock either.
