Was she able to order one?
Should've showed up just to see if they would turn me away
I can actually give you some real info on Maxfields (phily guy, look away).
My childhood friend works there as a sales person. I walked it today, she took me back, had a 10 min conversation with main manager. They have tons of sport (space gray and otherwise), some 38 mm SS, and no 42 mm SS at the moment. I was told 42 mm ML ~1 week wait, 42 mm classic band about 1 month 42 mm WSB a few days. And absolutely no movement on link bands of either color. So, walked out with 42 mm ML order. Hope she calls me by Friday

thanks for the info!
And yes, they charge your card full amount and no refunds. But you can always CL it if you don't like it.
My thought is that they intentionally shut off watch sales early so as to not get a big rush after work that could interfere with their normal product sales and customer base. Also may help control the backlog of orders they place and process.
Not saying it is right, but just a thought.
I preordered 42 SG and received it last week. After 2 days, SB started staining, peeling, etc. Also, I realized sport was not for me. SG looks more like Fitbit than a real watch (not trying to start a war here, just IMHO). So, I sold SG on CL last week. Now waiting for SS.

Any info on the 42mm SS BSB?
Ah ok thanks! That's helpful. Hopefully a few days means less than a week. Eh, as long as someone here who ordered a bsb ss 42mm gets a call soon, that'll be a good sign.
So my cousin basically gave up going for me after going twice and being turned away. He's a stand in on set so he basically works all day. Found someone on ebay who wants $670 to order and ship a watch for me from Maxfields.
I hate Apple right now.

Thanks!! We are all in the same boat
Space grey 42mm

Because he was getting there around 5:45 and this was before they were making appointments. The line was long and they stopped right at 7 or a little before.

No worries Apple is doing a fine job of delaying me purchasing one lol.

Hey! So I went to Maxfield today and this is what I found out. I went at 1pm, there was only one person in line, and got an appointment for 2:20pm. When I asked what they had in stock the man booking the appointments was very vague. He eventually said that they only had 38mm Milanese and 42mm Sport with blue band but assured everyone that more stock was coming soon and they could fulfill orders faster than Apple. I wanted 42mm SG so I preordered an am hoping to get a call soon to pick it up! Also they only make appointments till around 5:30pm for some reason. All the security guards were very nice, as well as super patient with everyones questions. Hope this helps!

Just rolled up at 3:00PM in my Benz and they let me skip the line to pick up a 42mm SS with milanese.
No Editions in stock.
