It's not. It's using the loyalty cards and the passbook application.

Apple Pay isn't yet available from the Canadian banks / CC companies - last I heard the target for implementation is still November, though I'm certainly hoping for sooner! :)

use can use it now with an american credit card but the exchange rate will be crap
 
We saw a few US orders get charged in the wee hours this AM (no doubt from the planes that moved on the weekend).

Anyone get charged in Canada last night? (we only get shipments from Louisville Tues-Friday, so there would be a delay). Would be nice to see some more progress! :)
 
I just got shipping notification from Apple for my 42mm SG BSB that I ordered on April 10. UPS tracking number shows that it's coming from Suzhou, CN and it is scheduled to deliver June 2.

Does this sound right? Other posts are indicating that their watch was coming from Ontario.

I just got the same - Apple shows it scheduled to deliver June 1, but ups shows May 29. Looks like it is just leaving Suzhou now according to the ups info.

I ordered my 42mm SG BSB on April 10 at x+5:32. It initially showed June, then June 4-15 and now shipped.

Now for a couple of days watching my watch circle the world...

What time zone, I ordered at 0528PDT and no changes or charges as of this morning?

Would love to get my watch before the 1st, I am heading to Portland on the 2nd and won't get back until the middle of June... Would so suck if it showed on the 2nd... I might loose it to my wife... LOL.

UPDATE: So i just check my account, says shipped 25 may, expected delivery 3-16 June... Agh I hope it shows up sooner. And no charge to my CC yet either? Is that strange?

Apparently in Canada our order of items is different from the U.S. - we get shipping information when it's in China, not Alaska, and we get the shipping info before card is charged. If you have a UPS tracking number on your order, click that and it will take you to the shipping status (more current and detailed than Apple). I'd say it looks good for you to get yours on Friday! Good luck!

Edit: I'm pacific time too.

I orderd 5:07 PDT and status changed to shipped on 22/5 at about 1pm CST. Receivied an email with a UPS tracking number that shows only a lable was made. No charge on my credit card. From what I've just read in this thread I'm guessing its on a slow UPS boat from China. Hopefully I'll see it by the end of the week.

Well, that's odd, as none of the UPS tracking I've seen has any address stamps outside of the UPS Canada system. There are time stamps, but no locations. Ours start when it clears customs at Mount Hope (Hamilton).

The same has been true of the US system. They typically don't see locations until Anchorage (their customs clearance).

Example:

I wonder if Apple has switched from locally drop shipped to their regular UPS shipping from China?

I guess they changed the way they ship now. I was expecting something like what you have. But I have this.

Just got updated.

Now for a couple of days watching my watch circle the world...

Amazing that watched ordered on April 10th just shipping now, so mine ordered April 30th?????????
 
All this order status checking is messing with my head. :)

Ordered the SS BLL (medium) on April 11th.
First had a shipping estimate of June.
That changed to June 25 - July 2nd.
Checked back today and it's now been changed to June 29 - July 7th!

Has anyone else had to deal with these sorts of flip-flopping date changes?

To add more confusion, it appears they have just now placed a pending transaction on my credit card. Has anyone seen any change in dates after their credit card charges are pending?

Kind of hoping this might be a good sign - though it is probably just wishful thinking.
 
Ordered April 11 at 4am PDT, just changed to PFS! Credit Card charged.

42mm Space Grey BSB

Preparing for Shipment Available to ship: 5-6 weeks

Where in Canada? Still waiting for this model and I ordered on the 10th...
 
My wife's 38mm AW Sport Pink just changed to preparing for shipment. Delivery dates are unchanged at June 17-23. Order date was May 14.

My 42 mm AW Sport Blue ordered on same day is still in processing. Delivery by July 6-9.

Must have been a good sign! Just checked my order status and it's been updated to "Preparing for Shipment" Arrival date is still showing June 29th - July 7th but I'm suspecting I'll be seeing it sooner than that!

My 42 mm AW Sport Blue ordered on same day is still in processing. Delivery by July 6-9.

Update:

Checked my Order status at 02:30 am PST and guess what? My May 14th order for 42 mm AW Sport Blue (delivery due July 6-9) is being prepared for shipment. :)

Charges on my Mastercard have been processed as well.

Next up - waiting for UPS My Choice to text me the tracking numbers as soon as they are generated for both watches.
