I don't think there's really a cutoff time. If the watches have already been stored at the distribution centers, we could have a surprise gift on our doorstep tomorrow without even been notified. That's what happened to a lot of iPhone 6 people
I hear people saying that this time around, but I have never ordered anything from Apple myself nor do I know anyone who has where they were not even charged the day before...
Yeah, if your card has been charged but you haven't received a shipping notification, I guess you could hope that it would show up unannounced tomorrow. But if your card hasn't been charged yet, I think you're probably out of luck. Sigh...

I have. More than once. Always Fedex and always I get notice at like 3AM on Friday. North Carolina.
It's weird that we've seen no Fedex tracking info.
I think people in this thread are holding out hope (like me) that something will happen...I don't think it will...
I even just looked at the UPS planes in the air using flight aware and there is nothing going to PA which is where the people I know getting watches tomorrow in Michigan had them dispatched from....sigh
What about the two planes that are in are from Anchorage to Lousville right now? Possibility?
I ordered my 42mm space gray Apple Watch sport at 3:04 AM EST. 3 minutes after preordering began. No charge to my AMEX. No shipping email. No status change. Received the infamous "email of death" last night. If I don't receive my watch tomorrow, I'm calling Apple and won't be hanging up until I hit someone who can provide me with information.
Apple has been nothing but sketchy and vague about this godforsaken launch and if they'd simply COMMUNICATE with their customers (whom loyal enough stay up until the wee hours of the night to pay them upwards of $400), there wouldn't be near as much anger as there is now.
I know I can receive my watch from tomorrow through May 8th. That's not the point. Everyone knows that's not the point. I didn't order at 3 AM because I wanted to be at the end of the delivery window. If someone with a delivery window in June receives their watch tomorrow and I don't, someone at Apple is going to answer for that.

Ha. I'm preordering that thing immediately.You think this is bad? Wait until the Tesla Model III comes out. The backorder could be years.
