How is Sacramento looking? I have not yet seen anything on UPS, though I did get a preparing for shipment yesterday.
*Edit*
Nervemind, I see that you have already answered me. Thanks,
To everyone who's still processing: I'll post plenty of pictures when I get mine on Friday and tell you all about it to tide you over until the 8th
Why be a dick?
Availability should not be a problem. This is the same SKU Apple is offering developers guaranteed delivery by 4/28. Cannot be the most constrained one at this point
Nope. They're offering the 42mm. Mine is the 38mm. Would suck if that SKU was constrained.
I've seen stories of people saying they're shipment for iPhone 6 didn't get changed until the night before launch and they still got it on launch. This thread unless your lucky and have had your status switch is just gonna keep making us all who are still lagging feel bad. We all want this equally as bad if only that equality spread through shipping. But I'm out back to work and no more misguided attempts at tracking some Chinese plane lmao. This is crazy. I am never this crazy about anything. Oh Apple.
My 42 silver sport Blue is scheduled for delivery Friday by 3PM at my place of work (Minnesota).
Relax, it was just a joke. I'm sure just about everyone in the first window will be getting watches in the next few days.
Mine is the 38mm though. Regardless they shouldn't be treating customers like this. We are the ones who stayed up to order the product, and we expect to be first in line. This is a bad move on their part in my opinion. Prioritize the consumer first, then get devs their watches. People with June ship dates have to be seething right now.
From the orders sheet, this is a very popular watch. Latest I can see on the order sheet preparing for shipment is T+03. Looks a lot less popular in Canada, T+16 already preparing to ship there.

It seems like the only people who could find their shipment info through searching their phone number on UPS are people receiving their 
Watch from the Tennessee distribution center. Typically, Apple has several distribution centers for product launches, including Newark, NJ for the Northeast. I'm in Philadelphia, and I surmise this is why I haven't yet found my shipment info on UPS despite my watch having updated to "preparing for shipment" yesterday around 5pm.

Great point. I am in California and was beginning to worry. I think the TN plant is the one that is ordering tracking numbers right now.
All of you people who have their status as "preparing to ship", yet are still complaining about not having a tracking number need to relax. It's really annoying, because you have a 99.9% chance you'll get it by Friday. It wouldn't be preparing to ship if they didn't have a box with your watch in it. Take a breather and let the people that are still in processing status do the bitching.
I'm in the same boat shipping to work. Mine shows a delivery date of 4/24 by 3pm with a label of 4/23
I just called FedEx, they have nothing going to my address. Do you know anything about the Northern California distribution centers? I ordered a 42 Silver Sport with white sport band. Order came in at 12:03.
I am not sure they are prioritizing developers. I think the blue SKU is the least one in demand and hence this is what they can offer devs without impacting the delivery "waves"
Only 9 out of 288 in the orders sheet have the blue band. Compare that to about 75 for black band.
Then the consumer complains about lack of apps working with their watches....
They can be tested well enough with the simulator. It's just annoying that some of us are waiting for a while and they just randomly pull this stunt. At least do this when your 4/24-5/8 orders are on the way and the customers know that.
Same for me. Oddly my buddies shows shipping information and his full address, mine just shows Austin, tx for delivery. But likely this is because mine is shipping to work and he is using ups my choice
