*********.

Apple reps are blatantly misinformed. People in the UK, Europe and Australia are ordering 42mm SS WSB models, and have a turn around of 2 days max.

There are people in the US who pre-ordered that model within the first week of sales being open who have yet to have their watches.

It's one thing to have such a long and drawn out launch, but don't sit there and lie to customers when we know the truth. The fact of the matter is different countries have different allocations of product, and Apple can't explain to us why such a thing is happening.

YES! lol I saw a post earlier for a 38mm Sport delivered in Australia, purchased 4/30 and I ordered 24th and have yet to receive it in U.S.
 
June date, ordered a 42mm SS w/ Milanese. :confused:

Same here, and to add insult my wife (the non techie) got her 38mm SS ML today. :(

I should add:

Ordered: 4/12 late evening (both)

Interesting. Well, this tells us the 42mm ML were more popular then. Thanks for the update. I ordered late 4/11 iirc after trying it on in the store that day.
 
I think I need to call the doctor soon.
Having Apple watch withdrawals and don't even own one.

:mad: :crazy:
 
Here is what the apple rep just told me. I ordered a Apple Watch on April 20th with BSB at 6:06:37 PST.

Awesome bro. Any thoughts on when the watch will get a narrower shipping window?

That is a very good question actually! I do know that the orders are getting ready to ship out very soon, and yours is in the process by the method of when it was placed. Once the bank grants the amount for the order, meaning they acquire the funds but do not release them just yet, we will then move to a closer estimated delivery date for your order.

After that, when the order is picked up from UPS or Fedex, you’ll receive a tracking number and the order will be shipped out and delivered!

Well I will just sit back and chill and hope my gets sent out soon. I appreciate your help Shan! Have a groovy day brother!

Hey you to! Also, there are a few quick resources I want to let you know are available. You can access the latest information and make changes to your order at apple.com/orderstatus, and through the Apple Store App. You’re also eligible for an Apple Watch personal setup appointment online to walk you through features and setup of your new Apple Watch. We’ll be sending you an email with details if you haven’t received it already. And just making sure, is there anything else I can help you with today?

Got the same answer when I called them.

Still processing here.

38mm WSB Sport
ordered 4/26
given 3-5 week window May 21 - June 4

I've seen 38mm sports ship out two weeks early so I'm seriously hoping for movement tomorrow (2 weeks before May 21)
 
Still waiting on movement of my 42mm SS BCB, ordered evening of the 11th with a vague June date. Just earlier I saw that the black sport band I ordered with it now has a more specific shipping date (instead of just “May”) so I’m taking that as a good sign, however minor it seems.
 
Hello everyone! Enjoying your time in good old June Shipment waiting period? I know I am! I ordered two SG 38 MM Sport on April 14th and am currently having a time delivery estimate of May 21 to June 4 and still processing. Want to know what's even more hilarious? For some odd reason the May 21 to June 4 got switched to 21 May 2015 to 04 June 2015 today. Thanks Apple for the update, that works wonders! Lol

In all seriousness though the only reason I am disappointed in this launch is one of the watches is a gift for my wife for our anniversary. Yes you guessed it, May 2 was our anniversary and that time has passed with no watch to give. Luckily my wife is patient and understands why her gift is not here yet due to circumstances beyond my control but still; ordered this thing on April 14 and May 6 is here. Other than that, don't mind waiting so much but that doesn't excuse this really botched launch by Apple. The fact that you could buy this in select stores that weren't Apple stores (Maxfield) is comical at this point. Yeah I'm sure they couldn't get out of it but it still doesn't excuse all these issues when you talk about a product that was introduced last year in Septemeber and well before that. Whatever the case they really need to learn from this and hopefully do a better job next time to avoid this cluster.
 
I'm June. So very June. I will be June as long as it is not June. Then I might be July. :mad:

In the US, ordered April 14. 42SS w BSB. I'm still holding out hope for late May. But in the US and in this model, Apple still seems to be processing the first hour of April 10 orders.
 
Well I called in to find out about my order 42mm Stainless Steel Case with Milanese Loop they told me it will be delivered in May 29th - June 11th. Ordered on May 10th. Scratch that Meant April 10th:eek:

Posted this in the wrong thread earlier thinking it was this one (I'm bad with forums on my phone):

Ordered a 42mm SGS Saturday (May 2nd) with the expected shipping to be in July. I'm not holding my breath but a pre authorization charge came through on my card today. Again, I'm not holding my breath but from prior purchases (iPhones, iPods, iPads) shipping wasn't far behind the pre authorization. But who knows. I'll probably end up waiting til July. One can dream though, right?
