so I was following the 4/24 - 5/8 delivery thread all week in constant excitement when others would post updates about their watches starting to ship, but I realize now it was a total waste of time and energy seeing as how literally no 38mm space gray sports will arrive today, to anyone, anywhere.

What time did you get your confirmation email? 3:01 AM EST
What model did you order? 38mm space gray sport with black band
Is your order Processing or Preparing for Shipment? Still processing
Where are you located? West Palm Beach, FL
Did you get email of death? Yes
Any other pertinent info: Just my extreme disappointment that I was such a loyal follower of apple to actually order this product within 49 seconds of the pre-orders beginning and they had the clout to not make enough models or produce them on time to deliver them by Friday. I understand the delivery window is until the 8th but I really got my hopes up since I kept reading rumors that many customers were going to get their watches on the 24th. I'm really hoping for a Monday or Tuesday delivery date at this point...if I have to do another full week (or two!) of constantly checking various websites to see my order status, I may snap.

I think this is exactly what Angela Ahrendts wanted to see!
No stupid ques in front of those ugly Apple Stores. Nonono.
Let´s go back to the 80´s and trash is the new chic!
 
Unless something really far fetched happens I won't be seeing the :apple: Watch tomorrow. This thread is for people who do not have tracking numbers and/or still in the "Processing Items" stage and/or have not seen a charge on their card. Look, I am really happy for the people who are getting it tomorrow but ****** you! Nah JK, I'm just jelly lol. If you have tracking info then this thread is not for you. Go enjoy your new toy! This thread is for people like me to keep an update of our statuses to a) minimize the clutter and b) not having to listen to all you gloat about getting the very thing we are getting left out of! :cool:

If you are like me and still want to keep up with and/or speculate about when we will finally get out of Processing hell then join in and give the following info:

What time did you get your confirmation email?
What model did you order?
Is your order Processing or Preparing for Shipment?
Where are you located?
Did you get email of death?
Any other pertinent info

For me....

April 10th, 12:08am Apple time
42mm SS Milanese
Still in Processing hell, never has moved
Alabama, USA
Yes, got EOD on Wednesday night
Never any kind of charge or hold on my Barclay Card

It sucks but I am going to enjoy the anticipation ride with my fallen comrades until I get this thing in my hands. :confused:

ordered the same as you did it was around 12:04 but didn't get the email till 12:09
 
I asked in another thread -- anyone have any idea what the flight pattern looks like from China to Alaska today as far as those of us still processing? Just trying to get an idea of when I would be expecting charges and any possible movement.

I keep getting "should ship out at any moment" from Apple and "you are in the first window" - so I'm hopeful that there's some plane somewhere with my watch on it for tomorrow or early next week.
 
So some people with a the 4/24 - 5/08 date range aren't getting theirs as well? I don't feel as bad now since I'm in the second delivery tier.

I don't know all the skus that had issues. I believe at the very least 38mm and 42mm space grey sports had folks in the first window who are still waiting to be charged / shipped.

42 MM SG BSB
Processing

San Francisco, USA
EOD Wed Night
No CC charge
4/10 12:04 AM PST - Entered into Apple's System

No movement. No updates. Nothing. I'm pretty upset at this point. I wish Apple would have given me a more reasonable delivery window - two weeks estimates is pathetic.
 
42mm SS w/ BSB confirmation email 3:03am on 4/10 with delivery window 4/24-5/8 -- Still "processing"
42mm Space Gray w/ BSB confirmation email 3:04am on 4/10 with delivery window 4/24-5/8 -- Still "process"

EOD recieved 4/22 11:02pm.

I plan to call Apple support tomorrow if my order status doesn't update because I believe they should at the very least update my order status to 4/25-5/8. I don't expect them to be able to help me, but I do expect that they'll take my feedback and use it to improve the process next time.

I dunno some email of death. No one wants to explain much about it but it's all over the forums.




This is the email of death:

We're working on your order.

O, that's what I'm going to complain about too!

First ever pre order without product in hand on launch day. VERY disappointed in Apple...

O I 'bet' they're working "24/7" to "get these orders out". That's definitely a lot of time though, could spend at least 1 hr every 2 of those days to come up with a better way to communicate the date of expected delivery. I thought this CEO had amazing "logistics" skills?
 
We should hold a candlelight vigil out front of our local apple stores

I held one in front of the Steve Jobs biography as I was praying to him yesterday that a miracle would happen. Guess his ghost wasn't listening to me.

I waited to order...so I didn't order until Apr 17. I wasn't sure what I wanted, I was planning on waiting until they were in more stores (hoped they'd make it to Best Buy, etc - but it's not sounding like that'd happen anytime soon at least)... closest Apple store is over a hour away, and it would mean driving in Milwaukee or Madison... and I don't do big city driving.... so unless hubby took me, I wasn't getting to an Apple store... and don't think I could convince him to take me just to try on a watch.. :D

So I lurked on all the threads that people were posting pictures of their try ons and reviews. And to my surprise, I went with the 38 mm SS Milanese watch (I REALLY thought I'd want the pink modern buckle... but after seeing pictures of it, it doesn't look like it's the color I had envisioned). After seeing pictures, I decided to go ahead and order... what was I thinking, I can't wait for these to become more mainstream in the store... I want it, and I want it now!!! (said in my best bratty girl voice from Charlie & The Chocolate Factory)

It's my fault for ordering late, but I'm glad I did so I could see pictures of it other than Apple's website pictures.... my date is May 20-June 3. It's still at processing, which I am not shocked about one bit.
