So today i went to my nearest Apple Store to look at ceramics and all the straps were a little loose but not to the same detriment as mine and the staff agreed that mine was outside the threshold. Refund issued and i now have to wait for the order that i placed last tuesday to come through. Still on processsing with a delivery date of the 27th. I am really hoping that will move up as the watch is stunning to look at

After 2 weeks of lurking on forums and you tube unboxings... I pulled the trigger and ordered one last Wednesday (9/28); and its coming tomorrow!!!!! I can't wait ugh today will be the longest day. I also got apple care. I have never bought apple care before but I figured it was a good investment this time around.

Was that's a 38mm as they are in plentiful supply?

Well you are lucky, I pre-ordered on 9/9 and 3:25am EST, my CC just got charged Friday, but then got an email yesterday that the order has been delayed and will deliver on 10/11 now.
 
Omg you are so lucky! I ordered last Wednesday as well but still no movement on mine :( Where are you located?
NY... do you think that makes a difference???? I ordered my jet black plus a few mins after launch and that's not arriving until Tuesday... isn't that nuts??? I literally ordered on 9/9 at 3 am est

Yes a 38... I went to the store and tried on the bigger size and didn't like it. Maybe if I had a bigger arm? Haha anyway I'm wondering if the 38s are more available because mine did ship right away. I'll post a pic tomorrow if you guys care haha

I am so sorry... that really sucks. Did you order the 42? I ordered the 38... maybe they are more available?

Is it a 256? Seems they are taking longer. I ordered JB 7+ (128GB) at 3:05 EST (9/9) and it was delivered on 9/19. I'm in NJ so should be similar to what I would expect you would see in NY

38's seem to be all over the place and easily available in the UK. Its the 42's that seems to be very limited

It was the 128 jb plus.... there were people who ordered way later than me and have received their phones. I was foaming at the mouth. It's been over 3 weeks and I still don't have my phone. This was def a crazy launch! I originally picked the 256 but it had. later edd so I switched down to 128.
 
So has anyone had any movement on their edition watches since saturday?

Nothing. And not a single 42mm Edition in the whole of the US at retail stores... even for release this is very slow trickle of product on the market.
 
So freakin fresh.... IN LOVE. So glad I pulled the trigger on this one And before you guys string me up from a tree.... it's a 38

Ok so I have got mine and i have to say that it is stunning to look at....but the strap seems to be loose on both sides. It wiggles up and down quite a bit. I have tried two other straps and they seem to be the same with eh watch. I am not sure if this is supposed to be this way. My two SS models have always been tight as a drum.
Anyone else have the same issue? I will call Apple support and arrange an express replacement under Apple care providing they have any and if that one is the same then i will just live with it.


What a bummer I definitely think you got a defective one... here's a pic of mine and as you can see the straps are very tight

Yeah I was just unlucky. just waiting for movement on my order from last Wednesday. Still stuck on processing with a 27th October delivery date. It may be another week or two yet.

There is one at the retail store in Covent Garden in London....Just so tempted to reserve it and pick it up on Saturday :)

I was also tempted to buy and have them hold for me until I arrive next week in London from the US. But the price is a good but cheaper in the states... even after VAT reclaim. Go get it @Bazooka-joe!

Hahaha I must reiterate.... the pictures do not do it justice!!! It has a stunning iridescent, unicorn horn color in person that's indescribably beautiful. Sigh. In love!
