Canada Orders - Shipped & Status Updates

Anybody have non-sports accessory bands (Loops, Buckles or Link) on order?

US orders seemed to be moving as of yesterday, but not ours because of the holiday.
I was hoping we would see some movement today.

Kicking myself so hard, for not ordering them sooner! Does anyone have some good news!? 🙄 🙂
 
Has anyone snagged an :apple:Watch in the US and brought it back? Guessing you'd get hosed on the duty? Are they even looking for these?

Just took a look - cheapest round trip to L.A. out of Toronto is $388 round trip (that's damn cheap).

I'm a July date for my watch (42mm SB SSwLB) - one of the guys on the Maxfield's thread just got one in two weeks!! (Ordered May 4th, picked it up yesterday).

Really tempting. (not that the price of the watch isn't high enough to begin with) 🙂

Providing you were able to dodge duty, would you really be saving money? Of course with any Apple launch, production levels will only get better. There's no reason to believe you couldn't see yours some time in June.

Then again seeing as they're struggling so badly to produce the link bracelet separately... I'm no longer so sure. Hang in there though! 😀

Heh...I'm not thinking I'd save any money - it'd cost me more (also add in cab fare and potentially a hotel room - I mean, if you're in L.A., why come home right away?)

Ah, I won't I'm sure. I took my time ordering because I didn't want to spend that much (was hoping I could get a space black with a sport band when they're available in-store). Then when the dates went to July I realized it could take awhile....

If you lived close enough to drive across the border and had no qualms of not declaring the purchase you could save a lot of money on the mid to high end watches.

Space Black with black link band is something like 32% less in the US than Canada. Even factoring in currency (around 24% right now) you would save on that alone and dodging HST would save a bunch more. Time, travel and not getting caught would need to work for you though.
 
Just a heads up...

I live in aurora Ontario and received email from UPS that my white SB would be delivered May 20. Separate email for my watch, that will also be delivered May 20. A delivery truck (yellow) not UPS showed up today with my band. UPS tracking did not even show it was out for delivery. Just went from in transit to delivered. Luckily my husband got home early and got it! Beware! More importantly...be Home!
 
How soon is this?

Just got a shipping notification for my extra white sports band (42mm), ordered April 29 and should be arriving May 21 (Toronto).... Now, if I could just get my SS with Milanese to ship too!!
 
42mm SS SG ML ordered may 3. Finally!

Time to rejoice!

I'm really excited for everyone.

Honestly... I don't know how you all do it. I'm already getting impatient over a 12 days wait for a Link Bracelet, meanwhile some people have been waiting 40 days for their watch.

I need to learn patience! 🙄 🙂

On a side note, it's kinda funny that Apple's delivering bands to people still waiting on watches. You would think they would try and ship them together.
 
I ordered a 38mm green sport watch yesterday night and it's currently preparing for shipment! Really excited as I've been checking my order status all day.

I'm also located in Toronto. I originally placed an order for the space grey but changed it as I liked the way the silver looked in photos.

You ordered yesterday and it's preparing for shipment today, while some of us have to wait 2 months? Something doesn't sound right?
 
My April 28 42 SS bsb just switched from Processing to PFS.
Located in Winnipeg.

It still says 5-6 wk shipping, delivers June 22-29.

Who knows.. I might get it by the end of the week! Woo!
