Shoot. Well, I guess there goes that. Our only hope now is FedEx since no one on the east coast seems to be getting tracking numbers or can find via reference.

I'm in NY and just received an email from UPS for my wife's 38mm SS BSB. My 42mm SS BSB - nada. Still processing and received email of death.
 
I just got an email from UPS saying my watch is coming in from Rialto, Ca on Friday.

Depending on your order time launch day you should be good buddy! Just got UPS tracking it's on for Friday! I was wrong about fedex

Scheduled Delivery Date: Friday, 04/24/2015
Estimated Delivery Time: End Of Day

My SS Watch with a white sport band has show up in MyUPS for delivery on Friday. WOOHOO! For those interested I never received an EOD and I got my conformation email at 12:05pm. I'm in Arizona too.

I wasn't certain mine would arrive via UPS since my iPad Air 2 was delivered by FedEx. Then just today, we received a FedEx package that looks to have been tampered with. I suspect it was mis-delivered and when the dubious neighbor saw it was nothing they wanted, dropped it off at my door. Not a good precedent for deliveries particularly when you're expecting some important.

No e-mail from apple.

Not on my profile Apple page.

Can't pull up UPS reference.
 
Wow, that is completely opposite of what I was thinking. Thanks for the link. There goes that theory, now I'm on the WTF side.

Right! I'm a pretty positive and forgiving person. This all just seems sloppy and somewhat abandoning their REAL customers. FAME what is it good for ... Apperently it's good for an apple watch :confused:
 
I had just checked My Choice and saw the label had been created! After reading your post, check for the email and it came in at 2220. Interestingly enough, it says the label was created 4/23, which to me means it was done in China – even though it shows shipping from Rialto. I expect the tracking will show the same as previous launches, meaning it'll takeoff from China sometime in the next 18 hrs (just a guess), get to PANC tomorrow afternoon/evening, head to UPS' hub in Louisville, quick flip to flight out to LA CA in early AM Friday in time for the truck to get here later (late, knowing our route) Friday.

It's my wife's 38mm Al Sport w/ green band. Status still shows Preparing for Shipment, shipping 4/24-5/8.

Doubt it as far as your routing goes. The label being created 4/23 is probably just because it is measured in UTC, or could even be Louisville time, since I think it would have been just a few minutes after midnight there when we all started getting these emails. So whatever location it shows on your tracking origin point, is probably where it is at right now. Otherwise, mine will go all over the place, eventually to California (my listed origin), before making it's way back to Anchorage where it will go out to me from. Either way though, it means we are getting watches Friday. :D
 
No movement on my 42mm Sport Space Grey on a 12:04 to NYC. Did receive the Email of Love as well (SUCH A TEASE!)

No longer expecting a Friday delivery which honestly feels better now than sweating about getting a tracking number. To all those that got 4/24 delivery -- happy for you guys (vicariously)!
 
Just an update.

Looks like  Watch orders for us Canadians are coming from Burlington, ON. It is also listed as UPS Express Saver service level. Weight of my package is 1 LB as well.

Got all that info via the IOS UPS app.

Let's keep each other updated.
 
Honestly, people in the most nervous position are those who are with me.

Our funds have been held, our status is Preparing for Shipment, we do not have the Email of Death, but we still have no tracking number from either UPS or FedEx. Right now reading, I feel like I'm the only one on this forum in this circumstance.

Eh, didn't think of EDT. But, I can't remember any device launch that didn't originate in CN (first departure in tracking). We'll have the departure location soon enough. You're right though – main point is that we get 'em Friday!

Now I can start the refresh cycle again for my 42mm SS SB shipping "June" watch...:eek:
