Delivery Dates 4/24-5/8

I don't think the UK will see any changes today either. From previous Apple launches, I expect they will change to Preparing to dispatch tomorrow (Wednesday), then be Dispatched Thursday for delivery Friday.

Hey folks. I just thought I'd share the phone call I just had with Apple online store with you....

I called to add Apple care to my order (42mm white sport) and It turns out I can't until they actually ship my watch as that's when the serial number becomes active.

I asked if he knew when we might see shipping status change. He said expect to see change around Wednesday. He confirmed that my watch will be in China and coming straight to me from the airport. Not via any hub! I'm in the UK.
Seems like they are running a pretty tight ship. He said it takes 48h from China to me. And he seemed confident that I would get mine on Friday. I ordered at 8:02 last Friday.


So ruddy excited."

Just looking at my Order email just now I noticed that it says "Shipment 1" next to delivery dates header. Anyone have info on that? Does that possibly mean I'm part of the first wave?

Did you buy multiple items on the one order? Though looking at my two orders. Order with just the watch has the same Shipment 1 while the other order has Shipment 1 and a Shipment 2.

If anyone is still playing, DRINK!

Honestly, take what Apple Reps say with a pinch of salt.
 
There is going to be lost of anxiety on this thread as I do not expect the order status for UK orders to change till wend/thurs . Keep it together guys :)
 
Sorry if this annoys someone, but my charger shipped with tracking code and will be delivered tomorrow, Watch still processing :( (Australia)

Mine shows "Shipment 1", I only ordered a single watch on my order.

I would not read too much into it. They are not going to number thier shipment batches, that would send folks here into a frenzy :)

You will get your watch on Friday.
 
Going to a London store today to try on 2 or 3 watches if they allow me. You think they'll have watch chargers on sale in store today?

I think that Apple guy is wrong, and was contradicted by another Apple guy quoted in the UK thread saying they were being shipped in bulk to the UK arriving today. I'm more inclined to believe the 2nd Apple guy.

the "shipment 1" is just stating that 1 item is going to be shipped. It is not in correlations with which batch of orders you are in.

You mean the first shipment , not how many items in the order. like Amazon does it?
 
aflatness216 said:
Right, that is what I meant. Either way, its regarding towards shipment packages essentially and not the batch order.

Yeah, spot on. Though I think it would be better to tell everyone they are in the first batch arriving Friday :)
 
Pressure has got to me !!!! I have now changed my shipping address. I am going on holiday next Tuesday and I had convinced myself I would get it on Friday but its too much of a risk as no one would be around to sign for it. Also I rang apple and they said the courier would only try once to deliver and then hold for 7 days before shipping back to Apple, I would still be away. Anyway Watch getting shipped to 97 year old now (Risk there as well as she will probably bin it or give it the charity shop because if I am away she will forget what the parcel is) Oh the stress LOL :eek:

Without being too bias, I do believe the Irish Apple guy. I tracked my iPhone 6 from China to delivery. On launch day.
