The thing I do mention a few post back is that it appears to only track those from domestic shipments i.e. direct from Apple's Warehouse in Sydney. It also cover any apple product - iPhones, Macs, Accessories etc.

Apple Watches most likely will be shipped directly from China so can't be tracked via this method. TNT's international tracking system isn't as nice to track so I haven't yet found a method to use it.
Ah well, we can still hope !

So ordered on May 1st a 42" Sports Green and had a test shipping of "June"
also ordered a 42" Sports Blue and also had shipping of "June"

Blue witched to Shipped on 5th May and arrived on the 6th (unfortunately my husbands).

Finally my Green has gone to Preparing for Shipping and charged my credit card tonight! Now time to obsessively check for my shipping email instead of order status on apple.com :D

42" Green Sports shipped today, due tomorrow in Melbourne.

Interestingly it was shipped out of Sydney, however by Startrack not TNT.

Yeeah - seems Sydney & Melbourne (and other southern areas) is served by Startrack, while Queensland Cities are served by TNT

Lots of things happening with the SBSS Watches! Hoping to see more post here soon :)

I start to think Apple won't deliver anything earlier than the given delivery window any more.
Especially for the 42 SG BSB. Well,I already waited 6 weeks might as well be able to wait another 2-4.
That's what you get for rushing home on the 10th of April....
I seriously hope they will never do this again. It has been disappointing.

Update from processing hell:

Order on – Model – Delivery ETA
10/04 – 42 SG BSB – 27/05 10/06

21/04 – Bright Blue Leather Loop Large (band only) – 25/05 01/06
-> CC charged -> EOD -> PFS -> Shipped (ETA 15/05)

27/04 – 38 SS WSB – 14/05 21/05
-> EOD -> CC charge -> PFS -> Shipped -> Arrived(!)

Brisbane, Aus.
There's a few passenger flights inbound to Sydney at the moment from China and Hong Kong. There's one from Shanghai about 30mins out, Goungzhou is on Final, as is Hong Kong... so hopefully there might be some watches in the Cargo-hold!

WTF Apple!

My 42 SG BSB delivery ETA has been pushed out.

Went from 27/05 - 10/06 to 29/05 - 12/06

That's what you get when pre-ordering.
How stupid.

HULKSMASH!

The Americans and Canadians get delivery windows for their "June" deliveries.
Not looking good. A lot of upset people. All in the last week of June or even first week of July.

I got my ETA for 42mm SG BSB pushed out 2 days yesterday.

Just wondering if it is the same here in the land of Oz for June deliveries?

Long time reader, first time user.
Ordered 42mm Space Grey w/ Black sports band.
Order date 14/04
Estimate: June

No movement, just called Apple to see if there has been any production developments to which they weren't willing to disclose. Fair enough - expected that answer.

She did however say that they had just had a "management team meeting" and that production should be doubling in the next couple of days. How true that is? IDK.

Want my watch!!! :D

As long as they HULKSMASH the person responsible for this shambolic abysmal unapple launch and then deliver fast!

A pizza from Italy gets here faster and is still fresh.

I'm not very happy. Seriously, I've been waiting since 2011 for this thing. Ever since they did the iPod 6G software update adding the extra watch faces, I knew this thing was happening.

Of course had I ordered a cheap and cheerful basic blue aluminium I'd have had it for awhile now.

Mumble mumble grumble grumble.

Good morning Australia,

Update from processing hell:

Order on – Model – Delivery ETA
10/04 – 42 SG BSB – changed back from 29/05 12/06 to 27/05 10/06

21/04 – Bright Blue Leather Loop Large (band only) – 25/05 01/06
-> CC charged -> EOD -> PFS -> Shipped -> Arrived(!)

27/04 – 38 SS WSB – 14/05 21/05
-> EOD -> CC charge -> PFS -> Shipped -> Arrived(!)

Also the delivery ETAs for most watches in the store was given a 2 week window instead of just a specific month.
Resulting in earlier delivery ETAs:
