Yes mine changed yesterday to 'preparing for shipment' however my shipment date is still June :-(
Still processing on my orders. Wonder if there's any chance we're getting them by Friday at this point.
Its not looking like it.
Surley when they have held money from bank yesterday they are getting ready to dispatch them to us but if that was the case a getting ready to dispatch status would appear??
Although I'm sure someone working for is bound to read these if so update us!!!
Correction, I checked UPS and one of my watches is shipping for Friday, but it is the 38 Sports that I ordered for someone else. My 42 SS is still processing
UK delivery?
I logged into the UPS site, you have to have a UPS My Choice account and it will show you when someone has created a mailing label for your address. Says it's set to ship tomorrow and get here Friday. No word on my SS one though
UPS tracking number
How to get your UPS tracking number if your status is "Preparing for shipment":

I tried to originally order with expedited shipping, but it wouldn't let me select it. It appears that Next Day is standard.

You me and thousands of others the whole thing is a cock up

There doesn't seem to much movement in UK order status updating to preparing to ship,although I was speaking to an online advisor earlier about an iPhone issue and just happen to ask about the watch shipment all she would say was that they are definitely not shipping from China they are coming from a distribution centre in the UK maybe more UK orders may change In the morning
I hear you!
This is the FIRST time I've pre-ordered something, could be my last.
I'll make that decision when iPhone 6 S comes out.
Just disappointed they couldn't anticipate 2.3 million (estimated) needed and gotten it done, THEN launched.
Others previously stated, separate boxing of watches and bands would have speeded things up considerably.
I'm the same my card got charged yesterday and still processing the whole thing is a complete ****** up if you ask me
So basically, if your CC has not been charged or your status has not updated by now ur not getting it friday? Just assuming
If you're in the U.S., and your card has been charged, your watch is most likely going to ship very soon. The status can be very slow to update. That info is easily found with a little research. Try the link in my earlier post, you may already have a tracking number. If your card has been charged, that's a very good sign!
Why are peoples credit cards with estimated delivery of may or june being charged yet mine has not when i have a date of 4/24-5/8? It seems like almost no 42mm SG sports have progressed. Kind of confusing.

Same boat as you and i have a 4/24-5/8 window smh
What I don't understand is how June orders are changing.. Maybe if we're lucky they'll change it tomorrow! I'm ****ing praying. I want it friday.. I ordered within 4 minutes. I'll be pissed.
