Anyone else stuck with a package is in transit to a ups facility. Mines been like that since 5ish last night. Hoping they skipped scans and it'll still be here today. Its already 8am...
 
Only the stainless steel and the Gold Edition of the watch come with the square box, the sports edition on comes in the in the long rectangular box. I think it is because the Stainless steel and the Gold Version of the watch are more like luxury, and the sports on is not

It just looked like on Instagram when you searched #applewatch some of the sports were in the square box. Maybe it's just to early and I'm not all the way awake lol

Yeah mine moved from Orlando but sometimes they don't get out till 9 so we will see
 
Still processing club even though I ordered we by 12:03.
Biggest disappointment in an Apple Launch for me. I was originally planning to take today off to camp out. Then it changed to taking the day off to wait for the UPS. Now I am left just going to work. It's not the end of the world but still a bummer.

What model did you order and what was your time?
 
First to order and nothing.

Good job Apple. Thanks for letting others cut in line.

Yeah I guess I could've slept 'till 9am gotten my coffee ate breakfast dragged myself to the computer ordered my watch that was marked for June and gotten it on release date. Last time I preorder anything apple.
 
Wow....because not on launch day? lol oh well. Just pushing mine farther up on the queue. :p

Well...I should add: My company already bought me one. I was buying the nicer apple watch to re-sell. Cause I know some idiot will buy it for $1000+ so they can have it sooner. So I figured by the time I received the watch, supply would catch up with demand. I didn't see the point of keeping it. Was just trying to be funny about the situation.

So you were buying it to resell? Well makes more sense as to why you cancelled it. Part of me wants to say thanks for pushing me farther down the line when I was actually going to 'use' mine, but that would be a jerky thing to say. :cool:;)
 
Keeping my fingers crossed that everyone who thinks they won't get their watch today (but were among the first to order) will be pleasantly surprised!

Waiting at the UPS center while they sort the next day air packages, shouldn't be too much longer

Patience...
 
Out for Delivery

I am avoiding unboxing videos and pictures like the plague. I want to savor the first look at the packaging and product.
 
Mine is "on vehicle for delivery" now. Scheduled for "by 3:00, end of day for residential". I am having it delivered to my home and therefore, I suspect it will be in my hands by about 4. Round these parts, businesses get UPS mostly in the morning and homes get it in the afternoon. I know the sound of their trucks (I'm in shipping and so I know the difference between UPS, USPS, and FedEx vehicles by sound alone).

I am really excited because this is the first really different Apple product since the iPhone for me. iPhone really has changed my life (for the worse as well as the better) and I am expecting great things from the watch. I just wish my dad was still around to see it, he would have been astounded.
