I ordered two today. 38 sport white and 42 sport black
The white listed 3-5 weeks
Black 4-6 weeks
Late June easrly July
I ordered because my girlfriend really wants one but only if I get one.
My pebble steel is being replaced so I'll sell the new unopened one. I'm still not sure I'm sold. Long wait times also kill impulse buys.
Hopefully people complaining are the minority taking the time to get online

This is the post that had me the most frustrated. i have seen several users with white or blue sport bands, that ordered after i did (several days after), receive their watch. if they can stock the black sports band that i ordered in store, then they should be able to ship mine out sooner than june.
42mm SG BSB on 4/17. June 22-29 delivery range.
Especially when "band availability" was listed as one of the shipping constraints.......
Here's something interesting. Ordered a 42 SG BSB on 4/20. Card was charged for AppleCare (authorization). Refunded a couple weeks later and re-charged on the 14th (Again, the authorization.). I checked my balance today and, though the authorization charge is still in "pending" the amount has been refunded back to my account. I called Apple and my order is still good (late June delivery.), but I find it weird that I'll probably be looking at a third authorization charge. Have those of you that ordered well before I, seen this kind of action transpire?
Yep! Seems like a normal policy at Apple to charge for Apple Care every couple weeks (not sure exactly why, unless just to "test" the pre-order card for funds).
Has happened to many of us waiting for late shipping dates.
Get a watch case like this(Apple Watch Case, Spigen® [Resilient] Apple Watch 42mm Case Impact ... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UVSNQPM/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_DqIxvb19K6153
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UVSNQPM/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_DqIxvb19K6153) for the 38mm to make it look bigger and to protect it. I got one!!! Still waiting for my 42mm BSB to get away from may 29-June though.
So I just take joy in putting the case on my wrist and imagining it cost 399 plus tax.
Figured as much. I've only had one mishap while buying from Apple (iPad Mini transaction got cancelled somehow.), and even though I've purchased dozens of products from Apple, that one transaction has made me worry every time something happens I'm not familiar with. It's sad. It's like, "Don't remember all the awesome things, just that one bad experience."
In any case, I hope it comes sooner rather than later, as well as for everyone else who is waiting for their watch.
I've had some movement on my 42mm SS with Milanese Loop this afternoon/evening.
I ordered it at 8am on 11th April, and my status had been changed to show the 22nd - 29th June delivery that a lot of people have been seeing.
It has now updated to "Preparing for Dispatch" and the date has been amended to show 17th - 24th June, although with it going to PFD today, I guess I will be getting it before then! Fingers crossed!
Hope others will start to see movement on theirs too!

Hey I work hard to earn money, I take care of all my responsibilities. I think I deserve to be excited waiting on something I buy for myself which I rarely do.
Yes, we all know there is not actual pain and suffering due to Apple Watch.
Nothing wrong with being excited for a new product though, just like people who spend hundreds or thousands to go to concerts/fights/sports games/etc... "To each his own".

Got the shipped notice for the watch this afternoon and delivery scheduled for UPS Next Day tomorrow. Was pleasantly surprised at how fast it moved after it showed preparing for shipment, roughly 1.5 days to delivery to my door.
Got the extra blue leather loop today, surprised at how well its packaged, plastic fitted band case was a nice touch.
Just got the email! Both mine and my partners watch will be here tomorrow!!! Granted I haven't been waiting as long as many of you. Well most of you, but I am stoked to be getting them in!
38mm AWS WSB x 2 ordered 04/May
Now I just have to order some other bands. I didn't want to ruin the element of surprise by getting my extra bands in first. I am lame that way.

I ordered my 2nd watch on 4/13/15 (42mm SS WSB). Last week, I got an update saying it should arrive between June 22 to June 29. Yesterday, I got charged. Today the watch is here and I am wearing it now. Sold my sport one this AM (got it on the first day) and I am so happy.
