A man in my neighborhood got robbed by two men today at gunpoint... I swear to Lord Jesus Christ, if those men steal my Watch after it gets delivered to my door, I will buy a gun and shoot them in the head.
 
Are you close to Virginia? Do you think I could go to a main facility in the area for ups and request them to not put the package on the truck so I can pick up.

Sign up for My UPS (or FedEx Delivery Manager if you get FedEx) and then you can change your delivery to be held at your local location for pickup. 😀
 
What's not looking good? It's only Tuesday, if your watch is already in the UK they may not charge you and ship it till Thursday.
I would agree if just for UK but from reading posts I don't believe that any charges or processing changes have occurred anywhere for this 42 SS sport black have taken place over the last 24hours. We will see, fingers crossed
 
My card was charged and the status changed to preparing. Then, a few hours later it reverted back to "processing."

I have no idea what to make of this but it seems like a relatively common problem.

From what I've seen, the 42 SS WB models have reverted to "Processing" only in the Northeast US. My guess is that this is all about shipping times...I would be surprised if they don't revert back to "Preparing for Shipment" today or tomorrow.
 
When did your order post?

I ordered at 3:12am(EDT) on April 10th and still no movement on the 42mm SS with the classic black buckle.

This.

Received my confirmation email at the exact same time for the exact same watch model. Still no movement either.
 
Actually I think it depends on where you're at...
For me, and all my apple fanboy friends who live in Orlando with me, Apple shipments always arrive via FedEx

I live in Orlando too and almost always are my packages sent UPS. I think I got the original iPad with 3G via FedEx, but the rest have been UPS.

Or, maybe, perhaps, since you are aware of their activity, keep an eye out so you don't have to kill anyone!
 
Where I'm going is 3 hours away and I'll only be there for a day and a half

You can also change the scheduled delivery date to a date that will work for you. It costs $5. Or, if you choose for them to hold it at a UPS location, I think they'll hold it for up to a week (don't quote me on that). So, you could always pick it up after you get back.

I'm in Connecticut btw.

I'm not in the UK, I'd also guess my 42mm SS with a black sports band is already here in the US. Just said UK because that's where you are located.


It's probably the most popular of the SS models, and is also what apple uses as the "demo" watch in all of there stores so it'd make sense if this was one of the models they have ample stock of already in destination countries.

Ordered: SS 42mm with white Sports Band
Via: IPhone App & Apple Pay
Confirmation E-mail @3:01 AM Esteren(Richmond, VA)

Yesterday Apple Pay notification of pending charge of $630.75.

Apple Store order updated showing Preparing Shipment

THEN-

This AM Apple Store showing Processing again.

Chatted with Apple. They stated all looked good, no issues and would ship out on 4/24/15.

Odd experience so far.

Any others see order go from process to preparing to ship back to processing?
