42 SS BSB. Confirmation :04

I know they aren't "late", because they do have until May 8.
Fine.
But it's super frustrating when my April 24-May 8 is stuck, and people with June dates are getting Preparing For Shipment.

Yeah but you don't know what watches they got compared to you. For all you know the June peeps were orders made before you but with a different watch. Stop worrying about others, life will be a lot less stressful that way.
 
And they are pretty much overnighting the watches anyway, so we can easily get charged tomorrow morning-afternoon and have it Friday. Chances are slimmer now yes but still a chance. This was clearly a bulk email sent to everyone still processing.



So you're saying there's a chance!
 
I'll admit, I've read almost every page of this thread and thought, "This is entertaining. People get far too worked up over this. We'll get them when we get them."

But seeing that they're selling them in boutiques to whoever but they can't fulfill orders for people who have bought their products for years and woke up at all hours of the night...is kind of blowing my mind.

As frustrating as it is not to get an item at launch because of few seconds sucks, but I get it. It is what it is, but that headline is ridiculous. Preorders from each time slot should be filled before any watch touches a "boutique." Just doesn't feel like Apple of old.
 
Just called Apple to annoy a CS rep about the email, because I felt like it :), and he assured me it was VERY VERY possible to have it shipped tomorrow and get deliveries on Friday. I'm not as worried anymore.

However: #Sh*tAppleCSRepsSay
 
Ladies and gentlemen, I am done here. The email of death certainly makes it seem my watch will not arrive this week. I have spent too much time on this website. I should not return here anytime soon. I just need to wait patiently for my watch like a good boy.
 
is frustrating as hell watching june orders ready to go and 4/24 orders stuck...
:mad::mad:

Why is it bull?? They didn't change your date, did they?

Just called apple,tep explained to me that everyone who gets the email is in for the second run ! There are no more watches coming in before friday's delivery ! So this is it guys were all screwed. So mich for staying up and placing an order at 12.03/12.05

I cannot believe my friends who ordered at 8.15am is getting his and im not !! This is so freaging unfair !! I even loaned him the money for it #

Go grab your pacifier and put your pj's with feet on, and crawl into your crib. All will be well eventually.

Do you not realize that they are just fulfilling models as they are available? I'm sure the 38mm AWS with PSB is getting fulfilled super fast while the SS with BSB and CLB because like literally everyone ordered those.
 
Exactly. If it's Preparing and the UPS "trick" doesn't pull up a shipping label, I'm reasonably certain that it is being delivered FedEx Overnight

You're completely ignoring that only one distribution center in the US is pumping out UPS labels thus far, never mind the smattering of others which have been thus far silent. There's a bloke in CA who says he found his UPS information, but thus far that's about it.
 
So if I am being charged, still in processing, haven't gotten an email... Wondering what my odds are for Friday???
 
Watch

- Canada. Might seem like we're getting some kind of preference but am thinking it's to account for longer ship time to get here?
- 42mm SS Milanese
- Order confirmation email came in at 3:08 Eastern on the 10th. Thinking I was one of the last to get an order in through the App before the website floodgates were opened
- No email or notification of any kind received since then
- CC charged and order status changed to preparing to ship yesterday afternoon
- Watch showed up in My Products on Apple Support page today
- Trick of searching on UPS site by reference number did nothing earlier today but tonight is now giving me a tracking number with a "once the shipment arrives at our facility we'll give you an ETA"
- Guarantee I'll look back at this post in two years and wonder why I've followed this so closely, but what the heck it's fun :) Thx to everyone posting for making it easier to stay in the loop
 
Received invoice from Apple

Just received an email from Apple at 10pm EST with the invoice for the 42mm SG Sport. My shipping status had changed on Monday. Hope it makes it to my home in Canada on Friday.

Received the dreaded email for my 04:24 order for SG 42mm Sport. The outlook for Friday delivery isn't impossible but doesn't look bright. Too bad I wasted time trying to combine my two watch orders using the Apple Store app. The way it went straight to checkout threw my off and was worried multiple orders could cause an issue. At least I should be able to play with my wife's watch if anything LOL
 
The email. Says delivery 04/24--05/08. Why are you guys interpreting that as "not 04/24"? I am really confused and I can't tell if I'm misreading it or if everyone is insane.

I received it too. :04 SG 42mm sport.

This is either the writing on the wall or stop calling us about your order. Which do you think.
