In London Ontario Canada. Order email received at 3:05 EDT SS 42mm Black Sport Band. No status change, still processing.

Has anyone in Canada received a status change?

Burlington here. Mine went to preparing to ship at around 530pm
 
Card was charged earlier, for a 42mm SS white sport band, the status went to Preparing for Shipment.

But it switched back to Processing two hours ago, and has remained there. Oh well, what a strange day. Hopefully it sorts itself out.

I wonder if it has something to do with the 42mm SS white sport band, because that's the one I ordered and am back at processing. My card still has a pending amount though, so it might just be a glitch.

Same model as me. I have the same problem. Processing >Charged> Pending shipment > Processing!

That pending charge won't drop off regardless for a few days.

Yup. Alberta here. Got a charge (TD) and status change this afternoon on a 12:02 42SG order. Still shows Preparing for Shipment.
 
They said that the watches are in distribution centers in the U.S. They are not coming from China. But what they need to do is ship them early to compensate for the screw up they made on the date

It does take different times for products to be delivered to different places from different places.

I have a distribution center very close to me, it's in Indianapolis and I live in Milwaukee. That would only take a day or two to get here.
 
I think there is a possibility that if they are in distribution centers in Country, the orders are processed by the way they are unloaded. Once they are identified the preparing for shipment status is the next step. Containers are packed till not any empty space is unused based on the cube of the packaging. Also the people that unload them work in shifts, and only so much unpacking, and organizing can be done per shift. If my theory is correct, then when the banks processing centers go back online there will be a bunch of catchup on the banks for tomorrow. Also Europe, and Australia will see a lot of activity in their daytime hours. This is just based on my experience during the time I worked at a shipping company.
 
honestly...

I was a 3:01am order, and still processing!! These tornadoes are messing with Apple.

My two cents is that all the SS watches are already at the distribution centers (in USA or respective countries) and that there was a glitch in the system causing them saying they are preparing to ship like all the other sports, where they wont actually ship until later this week.

I agree with the theory that if it hasn't changed to preparing for shipment, it most likely means your watch is physically closer to you right now. So that's cool.
 
Yay! :D

I received my confirmation e-mail at 12:05 am PDT. It's being shipped to San Francisco. Stoked!

It is our daytime hours in Australia but it looks like no one has had any movement yet :(

That would be wonderful if it's true. I need to take some melatonin so I can actually sleep.

P.S. , am I the only one that looks at the blank area of my wrist and imagines having the watch there? or am I just delusional? :apple:
 
nope, my SS 42mm black sport band is still processing. Someone said it may be due to the impending tornado? srsly wut

That was me. We have the same order in limbo. The weather seems to be settling in Harrisburg so hopefully things will soon start to move in our area. My 12w charging block got here fairly quickly from the Harrisburg hub so I'm hoping our watches are there and will do the same.
