at this point, having a tracking number means nothing until it leave the distribution center its sitting at.
Got a tip for us?

If you have UPS My Choice, you can do a shipment release and designate where you want it left (i.e., front porch, backyard, ect). When the driver scans your package prior to getting to your door all these notes will pop up. My UPS driver says if they ignore the instructions they get in trouble.
Standard shipping was the only method available at order. However it appears from tracking formation that they are being shipped Overnight saver, at least for those shipped UPS.
For whatever reason, I can't find my orders by reference, through UPS MyChoice or through FedEx Delivery Manager. I have three watches coming (two Sports which switched to "Preparing for Shipment" on Monday, and one SS Milanese which just switched over to PfS a few hours ago)none of them come up.
Wondering if all 3 should arrive together or if the SS Milanese will be delayed, despite its status...?
I'm at the point where I'm done checking, if it comes Friday, yay. If not oh well. Still have a sliver of hope that will come Friday, but I'm done stressing over it. Glad I took Friday off, I need it now lol. Good night MR, may you all be blessed by the delivery man/woman on Friday.
I've ordered at 12.48AM PT on April 10 the 38mm Sport with white Band and it's been in preparing for shipping status since Monday. Nothing changed yet.
I also ordered 5 minutes later a 42mm SS with Classic Band and it's still processing.
I called Apple today, yelled for 10 minutes, he put me on hold, then I got to speak with somebody higher up. He told me both watches are (100%) in the warehouse in California (I live in Redondo Beach, close to LA) and will be shipped tomorrow most likely. I didn't think is true, but then I got an email from the guy thanking me for my patience, and gave me his contact info and email address.
So there is a chance, although I am not a patient person, and I do not trust anybody but a tracking number!

Unless you're not getting it through UPS.Sorry, but apparently they are wrong. People who got a change to preparing for shipment in the US see their UPS Mychoice deliveries for the 24th, whereas people without a status change haven't received these updates. Nice try though
How do you know it's voided if you haven't gotten the tracking number from Apple?
If you paid with Amex and found your shipment with track by ref please help us
Please tell us if you got a real charge or just a Preauth or pending. I'm starting to wonder if folks that got charged Monday are just seeing a re authorization by apple to make sure the CC is still good. When I checked mine that was the case. I'm preparing for shipment but don't have tracking. I want to see if there is a pattern?

Yelling gets you nowhere and really just makes the reps day deplorable. Just be nice but inquisitive.

I know what I'm doing, I work in the cust service, just wanted him to put me on with a real guy who can do what I need him to do.
Just got off the phone with apple inquiring about the fact that my card was charged on Monday yet I have no email updates at all.
He said because it's a debit card it's only a hold on the funds and it has no bearing on when it will ship.
He only stated that it could be shipped anywhere from the 24th to the 8th. At which time the hold will be deducted.
He must of gotten the memo....
So..although the status says preparing to ship Apple is basically hijacking my funds for up to three weeks if it doesn't actually ship out until the 8th. great. Is this a kickstarter???
Ordered at 12:02 SS classic buckle southern ca
I assume tomorrow since my Ups MyChoice says the label date is 4/23 and delivers Next Day Air Saver on the 24th.
We will know for sure tomorrow but I think it's fair to say that anyone who has been charged already is getting their watch on Friday
