The Apple stores will have plenty in stock as long as you want a 38mm.

In July they will have more 42mm.
 
I think that those that are still waiting for a pre-order are unable to get their requested unit but other units are available (not just the same sku) that could be a problem anyway. If I could go into a store and get a SS and even have bands there while people were waiting for their combo that they ordered... :(

Well , Going back to my wait for my AWS , maybe they will be in stores by the time we get them :)
 
maybe this post pertains to the various 38mm watches that are readily available from Apple.com? The 42mm Space Gray Sport and the SS Black are moving very slowly! I'd hope they fill the pre-orders for these 2 (and many more that are backlogged) before having them in store.

That would be just the 38mm SS with BSB ...
 
Keep them. Purchased one for myself and wife, got on first week and was easy to realize that it was a waste of money! Not a pro at fitness at all (get a Garmin). Also, if you are the type of person that needs instant notifications on your wrist, then good for you. I think Steve left at the right time, nothing major industry breaking to release to the market left for Apple! not for a while anyways.
 
In store by end of June ?

Sorry Apple, you should fulfil all your pre-orders first, early if possible

Currently orders are quoted as 5-7 weeks for the watch , that makes it around 3rd week of June as the earliest

My order (mid april) is supposed to be delivered end of June, which after the dates you're currently quoting for the watch model I ordered

very poor showing if pre-orders and existing orders are not going to be delivered before the stores get them

Not for nothing, Steve didn't necessarily leave by choice. He was dying!
 
Ordered my Pink Modern Buckle at 3 am CST right when it was available and still just processing. My sport bandits supposed to be delivered today but obv dies me no good at this point.

Anyone know if any Modern Buckles have shipped yet??
 
I don't understand why people want them to fill preorders first. I will just buy one in store and cancel the preorder. Makes no difference to me.

Yeah, I think this is how it went down... (the sarcasm should be dripping by now, please make sure your monitor can handle it...)
Death Angel: Steve, you can stick it out for another 40 years, or come with me.
Steve: I'm just worried that this :apple:Watch roll out will be botched with or without me (cue up U2 singing from The Joshua Tree). I'll go with you.
Death Angel: You know, most people take the choice of life, when I offer it up.
Steve: This seems like a better option.
 
Cook reportedly told employees that the Apple Watch launch "could not be going better,"

I would have to disagree! Ordered 4/10, still waiting.....:rolleyes:


Then cancel your order and get on with your life.

Oh wait, there's no way on earth you'd do that. So, for Apple the launch could not be going better. See how that works? ;)

I pretty much use mine as just a plain old watch. I've turned off the majority of the notifications.
 
Me too. I won't be happy if they sell them in the stores before I get mine at the end of June. Should I cancel my order and buy the watch in the store?:(
 
Well that did not take too long. Good news for people who want to pop in, try a few models and leave with the one that appeals most

Modern Buckles started shipping this week.
 
the black one on the right looks pretty good.

I'd like it if I could make all the text orange-yellow like the retro watches.
 
My order for a 42mm Space Grey Sport placed on 25th April has finally updated from a vague shipping date of "June" to a more accurate but slightly disappointing "5-6 weeks (22nd to 29th June)" - I was really hoping for early June rather than the last week of June.

I'll be upset if they are in the stores before my online order arrives...

Something is not right on their queuing system. I ordered the 42mm Apple Watch with link bracelet on April 27th with estimate in "June". Two days ago it updated to delivery by 22-29 June. Funny (not so) thing is that if you order it right now you get 5-6 weeks, which means exactly the same delivery date after I have waited almost a month!. How is it possible?

Cherry on top of this sh * t cake is if watches start being available in stores at the same date or earlier than my 9 weeks wait. Not happy.

For the record: bought and to be delivered to Munich, Germany.

I wouldn't cancel anything until you have the watch of your choice in your hand. Pre-orders may ship earlier than expected and all watch styles may not be available in stores.
