Also love how when I made a thread for the pink sport watch that I was told by a mod I couldn't do that and redirected to post in a generic Apple shipments thread....yet I see tons of other watches with specific threads. WTF? :mad:
 
38 mm SS preparing for shipment before 42 mm SS?

38 mm SS sport band preparing for shipment; found out about 1 hour ago.

42 mm SS sport band still processing.

Both ordered (separately) around 3:04 am EDT. I actually ordered the 42 mm first.

Of note I changed the shipping phone number; didn't touch the billing information.
 
Is yours the 42? I ordered my 42mm SS w/classic buckle at 12:02, got the conformation at 12:03. Got a message yesterday from Chase at about 2PM Apple had put a pending charge on my account. Soon after my order switched to preparing to ship. I'm in Denver.

Yes. Exact same watch. Order confirmed at 12:06. Got charged in today's batch and now showing preparing to ship :)

How do you search via reference on MyChoice?

After you are logged in, click on Tracking. Then there should be a tab up at the top that says 'UPS My Choice' and it will bring up a calendar and that is where I saw on the 24th that I had a scheduled delivery. Then if you hover over it, it will show you more info including the tracking number.
 
I ordered 42 SS with classic black buckle just a couple minutes after order go live. Got charged yesterday evening and changed to " Preparing to ship" shortly thereafter. The Apple website still lists my status as that. However, I am able too see a tracking number on the UPS site using the MyChoice section. It had not actually shipped but shows as having a shipping label being made. Scheduled to deliver Friday late afternoon.
 
not even going to bother registering for my choice as they have to send a code to my house before I can use the service. Pointless for one package.

I was able to set it up by answering some security questions that I was actually shocked it knew to ask. In the list of previous streets I lived at it actually listed where I was in 1978. I HOPE that was just a coincidence. I hit the wrong button and had to get a new list of questions.

I didn't have to do this, otherwise I probably wouldn't have either. I also answered the security questions, kind of scary that they have that much information.

To the back of the line you go I'm afraid. :confused:
 
This is the best option to get the package on your terms. A lot will do this (I am).

Thanks for the comment. I learned if you have it go to a local access point, it costs $5 and will take approximately 1 business day to get there. I'd rather just pick it up at 9 AM at the UPS Customer Center. It'll allow me to get there earlier and pick it up first thing in the morning 4/24.
