hoping that something magical happens and apple some how gets me a watch even though i got the EOD... I really hate this stupid system but it is what it is.
Got a tip for us?

I got the same email for my specific order number containing the 42 mm SG Sport. I did not get an email regarding my other two order numbers for the White Sport. So I can only assume that this is bad news. 🙁
I have a theory but will wait for confirmation.
I am PFS and Pending on my debit card, with a 3:04a EDT email.
No EOD.

Shoot. There goes my theory.
Yes, absolutely. A very small issue indeed.
Although admittedly, I've been one of those people obsessing... 🙄 I guess it's just fun to revel in everyone's excitement and anxiety!

42MM Stainless Milanese. Ordered on 4/10 @ 12:02AM. 4/24-5/8 ship estimate. My order has status has been "Preparing for shipment" since Monday night. My account has been charged.
Apple has been sending out emails in the last hour or so regarding Watches that are still processing saying that they will be delivered between 4/24 and 5/8. The bad news is that orders preparing for shipment did not get this email.
Mine just showed up in the Support Profile with a S/N

Nope... and my macbook air, riPad mini, iPad 2, iPhone 5, iPhone 4s, iMac, macbook (white from 2006), and Powerbook (2003) are all there... so I think it's just that not every product gets added automatically.

lmao @ death label.
They only seem to have gone out to people who haven't seen their cards charged and status changed to preparing to ship apparently.
I got the same email about an hour ago and called apple... Before telling them about the email they told me I have good chances to get my watch on Friday because they request ahutorization for payment and probably tomorrow I would get the prepare for shipment or maybe not status since they rush and get it on Friday. I wonder if the email happens right before they request authorization of payment.
I had ordered 42 mm SS BSB at 12.03 am PST. Located in North California
Same here with same watch. Did not get an email for my two other orders for the 42mm sport white that are preparing to ship however.
I have not received the EOD and my watch is still "preparing for shipment", but it's not in my support profile yet, and there is nothing on UPS. Sacramento here. Getting very worried.
I am in NJ.
My card got charged last evening for the watch, so I know I am getting it launch day.
No other indications of shipping via notifications.
However, that proves the theory that many watches are going out by local hubs today (via Next Day) and that notifications will go out only a mere day prior to delivery.

I believe that the email of death is a bad thing, and that if your order is preparing for shipment, then you will have it Friday. The email of death is just Apple's way of letting us know that it may not arrive Friday and applies to orders still processing-not preparing to ship. So congrats!
