As there's a line at UPS and takes even longer than if it were delivered #

That's possible. The couple of times I've gone down there, the wait has been maybe 10 minutes? The wait usually isn't that bad. I'm assuming there are other Customer Centers throughout my city too and many people just wait for their driver, so it really shouldn't be a problem.
 
My packages also coming from APPLE LO35 NPI RESI
MOUNT JULIET, TN, US. UPS says pickup from TN at 4:10 on Apr 23. I am in Chicago BTW
 
More power to you, for that example I used a 8am delivery time however I know as a matter of fact my UPS delivery time is between 12pm-4pm and being that I have plans all day for my birthday, I'd rather manipulate the system to get it late Thursday night or early Friday morning on the off chance that they don't leave it in our apartment office like that have done in the past making me go another day without! lol:cool:

So I am thinking about having them hold it for me at the Customer Center, do you think I should? The deliveries don't happen until really late and the center opens at 8 AM.
 
I think I am at the point now that if I get the watch Friday great, if not fine too. I just want to see "Preparing for Shipment" and a charge to hit my card! I don't care if that does nothing as far as meaning I am going to get it Friday. I am just ready to stop refreshing the freaking page every 10 mins on Apple and my bank!

Just shut up and take my money :apple:!
 
Gentlemen with my luck they'll loose the bloody watch, and our Toronto UPS workers aren't the smartest to begin with. I'm probably better off calming my nerves with beer and poutine as I wait. :D

I like your thinking, that sounds pretty good! I might have to have a beer and an okie poutine myself! Dang now you made me hungry!
 
Tim cook better hope I never find out his imessage when I get my watch..Im gonna be tapping him on his wrist a million times a day. Excuse me let's uhh get a quicker shipping date going on here...uuuh sir why are the prices of the macbooks going up and THERE ISNT EVEN A CD DRIVE ON IT?!!?!?

Ha I couldn't even tell you the last time I touched a CD. Personally I think a tape drive would be a nice touch

I'm just kidding haha I plan to do the same thing if my watch ever prepares to ship its little arse to me. :mad:
 
Where are you located? It at least seems that the threads blow up around that time with orders. There is likely the possibility of a scan anytime day or night. I am just going off what I have noticed, I very well could be wrong.

True. I am in Minnesota.

Which kind of proves my assumptions you were charged at that time because a watch with your name on it was accounted for in the system letting Apple know to go ahead and charge the account. This probably happend as soon as the watch was checked and came off the assembly line. Then its placed in a box for shipping and I assume they load the boxes in no particular order thats why some of us have been waiting since Monday to receive tracking info. Our watch hasn't reached Alaska yet to be scanned in.

That would make sense. I have nothing in UPS yet but I expect it will appear over the next few hours.

I havent had a CD in a while either but i was thinking about loading programs on the macbook..you can't with no CD drive unless you download...but who wants to sit and wait for a download for 5 hours...Man those iphone updates take ungodly long even on the phone..

Lots of companies offer install's off of memory cards now, and you could always grab an apple superdrive, or super fast internet. Just saying, not trying to be an a**. Also my niece doesn't even know what a CD is, she thinks music and movies come from the sky. I showed her a VHS and she thought I was a caveman. :D
 
I'm from France and I ordered @ 9:04:14 (3 min after sales opening) a 42mm SG. Almost everyone in the France thread who ordered the same watch has his order ready for dispatch except me.
The last person to have his order ready has done it @ 9:03:35.

Do you think that Apple is is receiving every day, in local hubs, shipment and everyday they are updating orders with the "new" arrival? Is it plausible?
So it would mean that I have a chance to have my order "ready for dispatch" tomorrow?
 
I really think this is a true possibility.

Apple knew that SG 42mm was going to be big order based on pricing and the overall look. Therefore, they created a BUNCH of them and sent them to US hubs for distribution.

I'm hoping that I will get some kind of notification today. This is killing me.
 
HEYOOOOOO MY watch showed up in my support profile just now. It lists it as Watch Standard 42. I ordered the 42 SS CB.

Yeah because that's fair. -_- instead of making a ton of the same watch why don't they freaking start making watches for those who are within the earlier window who haven't heard anything yet?!?!?! :mad::mad::mad:
