I was at the Apple Store yesterday trying one on and they said probably a some will ship this week but most will ship next week. I am 4-24 to 5-8 on my order and I am not expecting my watch to ship this week.
Get real.
 
OMG! My order has been dispatched!

my Deliveries app says I don't get my watch until May 8, and i checked my order number on fedex, it said it'll be here on the twenty third! But for some reason my credit card hasn't been charged...

if you can type a response i know you're not playing along with me ;)

I am sure retail store representatives were briefed on the ins-and-outs of when, where, and how the online store sales will be staged and shipped.

(This is sarcasm.)

Store reps do not know. Online chat reps do not know. Stop quoting them as any sort of useful resource. They're not.

You forgot the worst one of all
-An Apple Rep told me....!!
 
I set up my "Uptime Robot" app to macrumors.com. As soon as the Apple Watch starts shipping this server will most likely crash due to this forum and I will get notified :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

You shouldn't have spoiled his/her believe in their source.


Now his/her day may be spoiled.
 
Had a dream last night that it said preparing for shipment and also said "delivery 04/23"

I got the watch, but then my daughter started crying and woke me up, ....even in my dreams I can't enjoy it.

Any CPA/accountants in here who like me are hoping for a nice after tax season 04/24 surprise delivery?

I sure could use it given the last 2 months of my work life lol.
 
I love the Dark Sky app, but it makes me jump when it buzzes, because I think it's an Apple Pay notification!

There's a ~10 second delay between the email badge showing in the dock on my Mac and the notification popping up, and I keep scrambling thinking it might be a shipment notification. Stupid spam emails, can't you see I'm busy?? :p

Was sooo hoping to see a change of status... I've been following this forum, silently commiserating with all of you, and finally had to post... I love having this forum to come to knowing I'm not the only obsessive Apple fan! Thanks for letting me share!
:apple::eek::):rolleyes::cool:

I love this forum around preorder time lol it's a lot of fun. I remember for the 6+ preorder there was a guy on here telling a hilarious story from the point of view of the phone as is made its way from China to his doorstep. I would read to just to see more of his posts lol
 
sever error

Just tried to make a small adjustment to my shipping address and got a "server error" message.
 
Hmm....I may just go ahead and send myself a gift message while I'm on the My Orders site to kill time.
 
OMG! My order has been dispatched!

holy $%!t.

Hand crafted, tangible order status changes?!

Now I have a whole other package to check my order status on. As soon as my order status says "preparing to ship" for my hand written change of order status, it could mean my watch is only a few days away from shipping and delivering, so Ill be sure to post here as well.
 
This has consumed my entire workday...I have MBA homework I could have completed...but this........this.....This is much more interesting to say the least. Super Unproductive day.....and these status changes probably wont come until I go to track practice and by then the hype will be over...then people will be saying when will it arrive? I hope its in the morning.

Yeah. I don't really know what I would use MacRumours forums for after i get my delivery confirmation. But it's been a fun way to pass the time.

Some posts have had me in tears of laughter, others just in tears due to stupidity. Lol
