Awesome! This is a way to track the number of Apple shipments
Thought we won't know how many are Watches - but big jumps = more likely to be watches!
Got a tip for us?

From my experience the status changes to 'Shipped' when it is given to the Courier company. It does not necessarily mean that it is in the country already.
It depends on what stage Apple have decided to ceed control to the courier. It may be that Apple are controlling all shipments until they arrive in the country and then passing it to the courier (as some devices may be destined for retail stores etc).
With my iPhone 5, my status changed to 'Shipped' once it left China but with my iPhone 6 the status changed to 'Shipped' when it was already in Australia and was passed to TNT (the courier) for delivery.
I don't think there's a chance... Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Most likely would be shipped Monday for a Tuesday delivery.
As much as I hate to admit it, if you didn't have a status change before Friday night there is almost no chance that you would get it before Tuesday at the earliest

Anyone in here got their 38 SS BSB earlier then expected?
I just canceled a 38 SS pink modern buckle. When I ordered it got July delivery straight of the bat.
Wondering if it would make more sense to order the WSB or BSB?
I can get the pink modern buckle later on. Whenever that is. It's just a 100 bucks difference and I end up with 2 bands for the missus.
The SB might get her to do more sport.

That's a bummer. Was hoping there was a possibility of my card being charged over the weekend. Oh Well
I'm really hoping that I'm wrong and they didn't charge today because it's ANZAC day but they will process some orders tomorrow
Mine changed to preparing for shipment on Friday afternoon. Hasn't changed all weekend. Wondering if it'll change tonight.

I have a feeling it will mate, they seem to load the trucks for the next day's delivery in the evening. Good luck! Hope u get your watch tomorrow
I don't think that UPS flies them here. From what I remember when I ordered an engraved iPad, they go to Hong Kong and fly on cathay flights into Australia. If they came UPS they would follow one of the two black routes however if they came cathay they would follow the red.

I hope so. The frustrating thing is that the TNT they deliver from is 5 mins drive from my house.
There is both a Cathay flight from Hong Kong and a UPS flight from Honolulu currently in the air. Let's see if there are any changes this evening.
My 42mm SG BSB is still processing (order placed on 10th April 5:05). I did get an email from Apple that they are "working on my order" (23 April 1:27pm). Hopefully I will see some movement this week.
Mines exact same, Preparing For Shipment since Friday Arvo (42mm SG BSB).
Seen nothing since, but got a suspicion that it won't deliver tomorrow since yesterday was ANZAC day
Same, except I ordered a 42 SG BSB. At least we know we will get it at the latest on Tuesday (unless you are in WA).
GG, i hesitated a little bit and pre-ordered on 12th, sports grey 42mm. Now its still shown as to be shipped in june.. Worst decision ever, should have pre-ordered the very first time. I am in Mel.
Seems like 42 SG BSB are moving in Oz as of 30 minutes ago.
Not physically moving.
Moving from P to PFS.
Just not mine.
Maybe this post will make it do so.

To anyone that has ordered a 42mm SG BSB I hope I just moved you all up the queue one spot.
After seeing some real life photos (Not Promotional) pictures of the SG Sport I decided I wasn't sold on the colour. I found it just a little boring to look at. I decided I would order a Blue Sport and see which one came first.
On Friday night I ordered the 42mm Sport with the Blue Band and as of 4:30pm this afternoon that new order has changed status to PFS and I have been charged for it.
I think I will be very happy with the new colour.

What do you mean?
It's so annoying that TNT is just up the road. Can't I just walk in and say 'excuse me that's mine' and save them the petrol? Lol
