Yes, this experience has been excellent so far. Two watches. 38mm sports pink and 42 mm sports blue. Both ordered on May 14. Delivered tomorrow May 28.
Now I wish I had ordered our tempered glass screen protectors a eek earlier. They are not due in until Thursday next week.
Was in the same situation as you. Just updated to show that my watch is in Concord ON - so I won't be receiving it until tomorrow in Vancouver. Looks like it might be another day to get it up to where you are.

I believe the two major international customs locations are Vancouver and Toronto, but coming from China i whould think that it would go through Vancouver... Therefore it probibly went via Gander.

Concord's the main distribution centre for UPS in Canada. Mount Hope is the airport where the customs clearance is done. If shipments need to leave Ontario by air, they go back to Mount Hope after Concorde to ship out.

Nope. Anchorage to Louisville to Mount Hope (Hamilton). You haven't been watching any of the flights???
Hamilton Ontario??? Thats not in Canada. Canada stops at the Rockys, everything beyond is way beyond Hope, BC.
Seriously though, I had not been watching the flight info. Still would have thought it would fly in through Vancouver, guess it goes to UPS central warehouse first?
Yep. That's the funny thing. It clears Canadian Customs at Mount Hope, then goes to UPS main distribution centre in Concorde to be broken up into regional shipments.
Really don't understand why UPS would have put their distro centre an hour away from the airport.
From Concorde, it either gets put onto trucks for more local distribution or back to Mount Hope to fly to more distant distribution hubs.
They work 24/7 though (well, except for the damn Customs guys....they work 8-4, and we only get flights from Louisville Tues-Friday, 4 days a week).

Mine seems to be taking a different path. It went Alaska to California to Seattle and now shows delivery by end of day today. I'm in Port Coquitlam BC (suburb of Vancouver). Much happier with that path than crossing the continent a couple times.
Hmm. We've seen them use Ontario, CA as a western distribution point (especially for bands), but haven't had that reported for Canadian shipments yet.
Where did they report the customs clearance as being completed?
Haven't yet - latest update was departure from Seattle 30 min ago (5:45 am).
Will update path and time.
Thanks. Is the carrier UPS? (we had some Fedex shipments lately).
Usually we don't get any detail / tracking updates until the customs clearance was done (that's when it enters the UPS Canada system).
Yep - UPS. I've been able to see my shipment from before UPS even picked up the package in China:

I live in Victoria and mine was also routed through Seattle and is currently being sorted in Richmond. Oh it should be making a short ferry ride to the island today.

Hopefully yours made it across the water! Mine was delivered just after 1 this afternoon.
Thanks! Wonder if we'll see any other western provinces start to ship out of Ontario, CA, rather than Louisville.
