The only store in Orlando that has Apple Watch Basics listed is Altamonte Springs (then again the Florida Mall and Millenia stores may have already had full sign-ups). Altamonte has sessions at 9:15 am, 12:15 pm, and 5:45 pm.
 
Seems to vary a lot depending on the store.

My nearest store of Norwich, UK only has 1 on the 1st May, whereas another store I visit frequently (Meadowhall, UK) has many of them all around the launch day.

I just checked all the North Carolina stores and the only ones that don't have Friday appointments for Apple Watch classes are Greensboro (their classes start Saturday) and Crabtree Valley (they don't seem to have ANY).

All the other stores have them starting at 10-10:30 on Friday the 24th. Interesting.

I'm sure they are just booked.

It's great to see but I don't think we can draw any conclusions. I mean I don't think it's any indication of which areas will or will not receive the watch on the 24th.

I don't think we are saying that. I'm not at least. I just think it's an indication we all get it on the 24th those that ordered 3:01-3:04
 
Apple Watch Workshop

There are three stores in the Los Angeles area with workshops scheduled, the earliest being on April 24.
Strange that they would schedule workshops on the first day of delivery.

I think it's a solid indicator that Apple intend to try to fill some orders in those areas. Otherwise, the workshops are pointless. I agree that it's not concrete evidence.
 
I hope so! No Los Angeles area stores currently have any Apple Watch workshops listed at all. :(

Wait till Monday :) I was surprised to see these pop up. Also everyone says apple removed the 24th but the sport green band watch in the site is set on the 24h next to the watch is coming. They just wanted to get rid of available and make it less obvious bc that implies in store.

Unless they think they'll have some delivered by the 23rd. Or they figure some people will get theirs early in the AM, and might need help setting them up.

My local has 9.15am in the morning of launch day. LOL! (Edinburgh) but Glasgow still has nothing
 
Just had a look in the London area and the larger London stores (Regent, Covent, White City, and Stratford) have no scheduled workshops the entire launch weekend according to the Apple Store app. The only store I saw with anything was in Kingston with four Apple Watch workshops for the 24th.

That's why I don't think these appointments mean anything. Obviously people in the capital will get apple watches on launch. It goes without saying.

As my earlier post, I checked my local store yest and it wasn't showing anything but is since. I'm sure this will update over next few days.

Indeed. It would seem incredibly odd and out of place that these stores, especially two flag ships, would have nothing scheduled. Unless, of course, they haven't been scheduled in yet for whichever reason.

Just another thing to obsess over what it means, I guess.
 
Biggest store in Dallas/Fort Worth isn't offering the Watch tutorials but one of the smaller (more affluent) suburbs is. Have them for noon in Southlake TX

I wonder why the Knox or NorthPark locations hadn't posted any appointments. Those stores get more traffic than the Southlake location.
