It wouldn't take 48hours for a package leaving a sort hub to get to where it's going. A package from China can get from there to someone's address in 48hours, this has been the case with previous launches.
Sorry if I missed this, but what exactly did you order and what exact time did the confirmation email from Apple come in?
No he's saying this isn't how previous launches operated. But previous launches also didn't have the product for you to look at in store. And previous launches didn't have an appointment based pick up system like what they planned for this time.
I ordered the extra charging cable soon after the Watch on 4/10. It has -always- shown delivered by 4/23-4/28.
I have an Apple Watch Sport on order with white sports band - order time 8.03 UK. Also have an Apple Watch 42mm - order time 8.02 UK time.
Pictures are not proof, there's been so many faked ones over the last few days.
And if the sort hub is in China, there you go. Although I doubt it since they need to clear customs. Or at least I doubt that's the only one. They are probably on their way to the US and such right now to clear customs. That could easily take a couple of days at which time they will be sorted and head out to delivery.
Same with my cable. I was joking around with my friends and family that I could have the extra cable before the watch. I do have 4/24-5/8 delivery date on the watch though.
Sorry, but I don't think you made that clear in your original post which is why people are asking.
In other words, nothing has changed or updated in your order since 10/04

My order isn't showing up on the Apple Store app but it is showing up when I go to the website. Cause for concern? Anyone else have this? 
Normally, items come via Tamworth for UK orders if the items are in the UK. These normally start showing up on UPS from the Wednesday before delivery on the launch /expected delivery date.
However if they are coming direct from China, they take about 3 days door to door excluding delays.
checking orders via the US store seems to be updated slightly faster than the UK store so it normally shows on the US store first

Exactly the same for me.

Works fine for me and shows my orders.
These things aren't allowed to take a couple of days. Apple employs companies to give them the best turn around possible. They will likely be in the U.S. right now. I agree, but they only have a short journey to the rest of the world from the U.S. Thousands of containers pass customs every day. It's not a long process.
I downloaded your image before, you took it out, just to check the serial. Its hard to make out but it wont show on the support site for me. Does it show for you if you search it?
I searched and can confirm it is legit. Like others say, that may not prove anything but I can confirm it is a genuine Apple Watch serial number for the model shown in the original pic.
It works here. https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Having said that, it could be a serial from an in store try-on watch.
