Got my order in on time and now they seem to be at 4-6 weeks delivery, wow that was close. How did everyone else fair?
 
Same! My Space Grey 42 order was completed at 12:02! Delivery date change to 4-6 weeks minutes after, phew!

I'm glad I went with the Apple Store app on my phone. The Apple Store website still wasn't up 5 minutes after I already completed my order :/ feel bad for anyone that tried going that route.
 
Pitiful showing by Apple. It's not as if they've had no time to prepare for this launch. If my shipping time doesn't move up, I'm going to cancel and not be an early adopter this time.
 
I got my 42mm space grey for 24/4 before 9.30am for an extra £18 as I'm going away for the weekend mid-morning so I'm well chuffed. #

I had a blind panic when it asked me for my card security code, so glad I had it with me!

All done for 8.03, the Apple Store didn't come back online until 08:01:40 so I was started to wonder if I'd be better going onto the Apple website!

I'm just hoping I don't get an email later saying it will be delivered at a later date.
 
I cannot wait to see real numbers. Obviously supply is tight, but is it that bad or are there that many people interested.
 
UK order, JUNE shipping date

Just ordered a Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Grey Aluminium Case with Black Sport Band, from the UK Apple Store, at 00:23 PST (08:23 BST local London time), and my shipping date is JUNE!

Holding out some hope that the shipping date moves up - it usually has done for phones I have ordered in the past.
 
Faired well considering I refreshed the Apple Store website on my Mac for a solid two minutes before saying screw it and moving to the Apple Store app on my iPhone 6. Checked out with ApplePay and my fingerprint, took 15 seconds.

I ordered a 42mm space gray Watch Sport with black bands; email conformation received at 3:04 AM EDT shows delivery dates via standard shipping between April 24th and May 8th. Here's hoping that I get mine on the 24th.

Just to clarify, was your estimated shipping from 4/24 to 5/8? If so, I'm in the same boat as you :D

When my order completed in the Apple Store app it said delivery 24/4 before 9.30.

I've just double checked my confirmation email and it says 24/4 to 8/5.

Slightly concerned now. #
 
I think all of the first wave ones say "24/4-8/5". That's what mine says and I got my order in right away and had my confirmation e-mail by 3:02am. Got the 42mm Space Grey.
 
These 42mm space gray are going to have some high resale value. LOL. I can't imagine people waiting till June.
 
I got mine on the first shipment!

Ordered at 3 minutes after!

One thing I will say is it would seem that Apple would've had someone watching forum poles which would've told them that this particular style was going to be the most popular.

I was thinking the Space Gray would've held out longer on the supply side.
