About to start work (working from home) and probably won't post anything until after I get my order the  watch I want after 1 mountain time or after i'm done work at 1230 MDT.

Good thing about working from home is that I can have everything set up (laptop, phone, etc) and since I'm done at 1230 am MDT, i will be ready to go for 1am.

Anyways, best of luck to everyone and I'm sure whoever is ordering their watch at 12 PDT will get their watch.
 
Hopefully this wont be as crazy as iphone preorders. either way i will be ready, wired connection on my iMac 5K
 
Yeah I'm hoping to be in bed 10min after pre-orders open. iPhone pre-orders are terrible so we'll see how this goes.

the 5S preorder went surprisingly smooth for me, but every other one has been terrible. The 4 was so bad i gave up and had to go wait in line at the :apple:store. ugh. never again will i do that (unless i have to in which case i will :eek:)
 
I hope this time the apple website actually stays up. I do not want a repeat of the iPhone 6/6+ Pre-Order.

I was in Canada for the iPhone 6 preorders and the internet there was awful, took probably 20+ tries, a few times the site crapped out right when i was submitting my payment info and i had to restart
 
My main concern is that the leaked image from the UK and German Apple pages showing delayed shipments on the pricier watches is real. Perhaps they loaded up on the cheaper designs figuring they'd be more popular, and didn't want to get stuck with lots of the pricier models.

Thank you. I think it will be fairly smooth since it will not have to deal with carrier databases. If we can get in, order, and get out quickly it will allow bandwidth for others to do it smoothly.

THEN we come here and brag about what we got!
 
I have a feeling that the 42mm Space Grey Sport model will be the most popular one. Which so happens to be the one I want :(

I hope you are right because I want 42mm SS Link. I am terrified it will either be too popular or in short supply. HOPEFULLY there is a good supply because a lot of the reviewers had that one.

I'm interested in the 38mm Space Black. That was one of the "4-6 weeks delivery" in the leaked UK page yesterday. It could be in short supply.
 
I don't see it being as crazy as the iPhone 6 pre-order, just because I don't think as many people are interested. The only thing really concerning me is stock. That's why I haven't fully decided on my model yet lol.
 
Good luck to all those ordering. Hopefully no sever issues on Apple's end.

I'm hoping for the same. I pretty much planned on getting a sport band too for the gym. If the link is a 4-6 week backorder I may just go with the sport band and try to hunt down the link band down the road

Same for me. I am going on vacation on May 11 and will be out of the country for 2 1/2 weeks. I really want it at least a week before I go. My order of preference is:

SS Link
SS white sport
SS black sport
 
And y'all is gonna crash the website and will be back griping tomorrow morning.
