So, I know we spent all this time refreshing our order statuses just to see some movement, and now that we finally have it... I have to ask, when will we get tracking numbers??? :D
 
just judging by previous launches (iP6/5s/iPad/etc.) how long does it generally take to change to shipping from preparing for shipment? One impatient early adopter right now....
 
Has anyone in Oz had any movement. I still have not been charged. I have Velocity AMEX. And ordered 42mm Sports Space Gray and had confirmation at 17:03.

Sydney here. No movement here. Ordered 42mm SS Milanese Loop & was in the 4/24-5/8 batch. No change to account or charges to my credit card. Getting worried now I won't receive it on Friday.
 
I dread to think how much money Apple just made from those charges and no doubt it was only a small amount who did get money taken
 
I will laugh hysterically if we SS black sports banders receive our Watches first!

I read somewhere that perhaps the lack of charging/shipment notifications is because they are already here in the US, because Apple predicted they'd be the most popular model!
I definitely hope your right

So it seems Apple has stopped charging. They will probably charge by batches every hour

Im thinking they are charging them in bulk every hour... that is what it appears.. I believe there is Hope for ALL 4/24-5/8 pre-orders to receive their Apple Watch's on Friday
 
Order just flipped again to Preparing for Shipment, hopefully this time it sticks!

42mm Sport Silver w/ White Band (3:04am - 4/24 to 5/8)
~5pm est - CC Charge
~5pm est - "Preparing For Shipment"
~6pm est - "Processing Items"
7:20pm est - "Preparing For Shipment"

42mm Black Sport Band (3:32am - 4/29 to May 12)
No charge - "Processing Items"
 
Quick question, I ordered a SG Sport that was email confirmed at 2:01. Apple tried charging me but my card's fraud protection forced it to decline. I promptly called my bank and Apple and had the payment situation fixed. My watch now says preparing for shipment, but will that previous payment problem make my shipment delayed even though it is fixed now? Also, to anyone who doesn't have "preparing to ship" or a charge yet, I would recommend contacting your bank to make sure the charge didn't slip. Thank you all!!!
 
Anyone in the Boston area get a charge for a 42mm SS black sports band yet or a status change? Got a confirmation email at 3:02am est

This is a web application, actually we didn't think to open for everyone.. we should have worked for this purpose too.. but it's not easy to open worldwide with a lot of controls to make it generalize for everyone :(

I know there is website some that looks just like that since I added my order to it, but I forgot where it was posted at
