The shipping estimate for the Apple Watch Sport with white sports band that I ordered on April 28 has improved! It was June 22 to June 29, but now it says June 19 to June 26.

...and now I'm preparing for shipment :D Any wagers on how many days before June I might receive the watch?

Wow Apple, I am certainly delighted, but wouldn't it work so much better if we just tell customers exactly when the watches will arrive? Stewing in this June purgatory isn't exactly magical.

Just placed an order for a stainless steel watch with black sports band a few days ago and got June 29-July 15 date. Hope it ships sooner otherwise I could just walk into stores in June?
 
Wow seriously?? Can we get a picture of this? That seems REALLY fast considering a lot of us have ordered the same model before you, have the same ship estimates and haven't seen movement. Not accusing you of lying just really am interested in this case! I'm sure we all sort of are.

Canadian orders are shipping before US orders made much earlier. Seems fair /sarc.
 
I woke up this morning to a "Today is the day..." message from Apple. I got so excited for a few seconds considering my delivery window is still weeks away, until I remembered I ordered an iPod for my daughter.....:(

You'll be getting it by at least next week. When they prepare for shipment it moves.
 
Pardon? What information are you making that judgement on??

There are a lot of examples of folks in Canada who ordered the exact same version of an Apple Watch as someone in the US, and ordered much later (sometimes a few weeks later) but their Apple Watches are shipping or have already arrived.

Clearly it's not the case with everyone, but they are shipping certain models to Canada before they're shipping the same models ordered earlier to the US.
 
If you're into prepare for shipment,, you will be getting it pretty quickly. I just got a sports band and delivered after A day of preparing for shipment report then the next day it shipped. Once they prepare for shipment it's pretty quick. That's what I seen.
 
I just got a update too for June 19, it says preparing for shipping. But I noticed they finally charged my credit card. So does that mean it should be shipping soon, or still in June?

Certainly not the case with the Space Blacks. Apple's trying to keep things in order, but there are regional shipments - can't help that.

I don't think anyone's arguing anything sinister, just matter-of-fact. Other countries, such as Australia got orders of certain models much earlier than the US. I'm sure the US has gotten orders of some models before other countries, as well.

Just trying to back up the statement the other poster made (that he wasn't making it up out of thin air). :cool:

Once it moves to Preparing for Shipment and your card is charged it will ship in the next few days.
 
Apple Watch shipped! What June delivery? It's coming May 21!

...and now I'm preparing for shipment :D Any wagers on how many days before June I might receive the watch?

Holy moly, now it's shipped! It says it will deliver May 21. That's a whole month before June. I'm very satisfied by this development :p

Now I just need to reroute the shipment, I won't be home to sign for it because I have jury duty. :mad:

Ok thanks, sounds good.
 
If anyone wants SS 42mm with link bracelet pm me, I want to return my wife's watch and it's still in unopened box. I just want $100 on top of it and you have to be in NYC

Can you have it shipped to an Apple store at this point or is it too late? I'll be working late the next few days (til 7 or so) and the only other way I could get this is by telling UPS I'd pick it up at their terminal (which is like 30+ min from here and would have to wait til 8:30pm) :confused:
