Ordered April 10 - received shipping notice this morning for Space Gray w/ Black band. :apple:Watch is currently in Shanghai with expected delivery of May 29. Original delivery date window was June 5 - 18.

I think you and I are getting the same watch as those are all the same details that I have. ;) I hope to see it fly across the Pacific today...
 
Has anyone ordered just the magnetic leather loop as an extra band? I ordered one and I was wondering how long it took others to receive theirs?

Others experiences will likely not be relevant as Apple's now stocking the retail channel (both stores as well as the online warehouse) with bands.

They should be sending you an estimated delivery date email.
 
Moved to PFS and CC charged just now.

Ordered 42mm SG on 17 Apr at 9am Hong Kong Time.

Yeah!!!

GUESS WHAT?

It has just shipped!!!!!! To be delivered by May 28.
Thanks for all your support along the way in this great community!!!

EDIT:

Anybody else going to take some time off the forums for a bit after their Apple Watch comes? I've been around here way too much lately checking dates, prognosticating shipping times, etc. This is the strangest Apple launch I've ever seen. I mean for crying out loud, I just saw a thread where someone was asking whether or not they should play with their hair and it only got stranger from there. Unfortunately I still have a while to wait, but in the meantime I'm at least making a lot of progress towards my next forum title, lol. Yay meaningless internet points.
 
Nice! man.. now I really regret not getting the WSB instead.. I ordered my 42SS BSB on 4/19 still showing 6/22-29 window :(

Hoping the situation for us BSB folks could change at any moment. I haven't been following the WSB shipping... was there a similarly revelatory moment where things just changed, or have they been shipping sooner the whole time?

Now the site says 5-7 weeks. I decided to go to an Apple Store near my office on Friday, and I did not see that on the shelf so I decided to ask somebody working there. She disappeared for 5 mins and came back with one box in her hand

Yeah the WSB has been this way since the launch date. I have 2 friends both ordered on 4/10 12:03 range and 1 ordered WSB and 1 ordered BSB, the WSB arrived on lauch date and the BSB was received a week later. I have been seeing people who ordered a week later than mine and getting theirs this week.. I still think that the bands shouldn't be affecting the availability of the actual watch. Again, like all other said it's the worse launch ever. :confused:
 
Ordered 4/14 BSB SG 42mm
Processing Items Available to ship: 5-6 weeks Delivers: 22 Jun, 2015 - 29 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping

At least my wife has been enjoying her 38mm for a month (ordered at the same time!)
 
Posted here on May 11th. I order on 4/14, 42MM Stainless Steal Black Classic Buckle. I got a generic June delivery date(Processing). On May 13th my delivery date change to June 26th-30th(Processing), on May 22th my delivery window changed to June 19th-26th(Preparing for Shipment). On May 25th my card was charged and received tracking info. This morning (May26th)I received an e-mail from Apple confirming my Apple watch has shipped with a expected delivery date of May 27th. When I went to check the tracking on UPS didn't have any information on the tracking# yet. I called Apple to confirm it would arrive on the (tomorrow) 27th and they said it would. I've been tracking the # periodically but no tracking info yet. Hopefully I see some change in the tracking info later today for delivery tomorrow.

I hope anyone who ordered around the 14th seen some change on their status as I did.
 
Ordered the ss link 42mm on April 10, almost 12 hours later from the 3am window and was given a June delivery date but no actual date. Two weeks ago it was changed to June 22-29 delivery date. I didn't expect any change but yesterday to my surprise I get a email confirming delivery of the watch for Wednesday the 27th. Checked the CC and it was indeed charged. This is well over a month earlier then the scheduled shipping date of June 22-29! For those who have July shipping dates this news is very promising as the wait should be much less for you folks. The end is near!
 
Just came back from exchanging a sports band at the Apple Store. The guy who was helping me mentioned that they are expecting to get them in store in June.

I really wonder how Apple plans on handling all these preorders from April that are still not fulfilled by the time they are available in stores.

Could be the end of June which most pre orders should be filled.
 
Definitely quite possible since I just posted that I will be getting my watch tomorrow which is almost 4 weeks in advance of my June 22-29 delivery date

Remember the availability and shipping date are depends on the model of watch.
 
Ordered SG BSB 42mm on 4/11 around 2pm PDT and was given a generic June date which then switched to the June 22-29th dates. Just in the last few hours it switched to June 4th - 8th. Looks like I'm going to be getting it 3 weeks earlier than I was planning :D

Might have it on the wrist by the time I'm watching updates at WWDC!
