Thought I'd start one for those of us that are WAY late to the game. I ordered two watches and two bands...ultimately the same watch & band combo at the same price...will cancel/return whatever watch ships second. I had a Sport but decided that the SS was worth the upgrade...so it will be Christmas again...in JULY (approx shipment according to Apple).

May 12 order:
Apple Watch SS Black Leather Loop 42mm
Black Leather Loop Large 42mm

May 13 order:
Apple Watch SS Black Sport Band 42mm
Black Sport Band 42mm

Here's to hoping that Apple gets it together and shipments begin to ramp up! #
 
Ordered 42 mm BLL on May 12th. What's silly is that I originally placed an order at 12:03 for the same watch and canceled. Idiot. Now I have to wait while others are getting their delivery.

May 9th order for 38mm Sport BSB. Delivery is June 5-18 right now. I'm also hoping that moves up a bit.
 
Yeah...I HATE that Apple charges for AppleCare+ immediately. I just got two charges for it. Wonder if they'll drop off.
 
What are your thoughts about early delivery? Usually Apple catches up.
 
All I can do is hope that either tomorrow or this weekend when my "Available to Ship in 3-5 weeks" gets updated that my delivery estimate will come down by a week. I'd love to get it by the end of the month but it's really hard to find data on 38mm AWS. Everyone's talking about 48mm or the SS AW.
 
42mm SS WSB

Ordered on 05-07-15
Original delivery window: Available to ship in June
Status: Processing

Hoping to get it end of May.
 
Ordered a 38mm White sport band and 38 Space Grey on May 8th. Shipping was 3-5 weeks (June 4-17) I believe.

Cancelled that order because I wanted a 42 Space Grey instead.

Monday May 11th, re-ordered the 38mm w/ white sports band (3-5 weeks June 5-18) and a 42mm Space grey- "July"
 
I ordered 38 mm and 42 mm Space Gray Black Sport Band watches on May 7.

The 38 mm says June 3-14 delivery and the 42 mm says July. Hopefully it gets bumped up.
 
Ordered a 42mm SS w BSB on 09/05/2015 (Cabot Circus Apple Store)
Dispatch Date: July

I'm hoping that now Apple have their Sapphire production sorted, and they now know which of the 36 different models to make most of things will speed up.
 
I ended up canceling my 38mm sport order and putting in a 38mm watch order instead. Ordered May 17, delivered May 19.
 
As of now, still looks like my May 7th order for 42mm Space Grey Sport is "Available to ship: 4-5 weeks" with a "Delivers: 26, Jun, 2015 - 02 Jul, 2015"
 
I was late to the game as well.

Placed back to back orders on May 8. His and Hers for my wife and myself.

Hers - 38mm SS WSB -
Was initially given the 4-5 week time frame but it shipped on May 10 an delivered May 12.

His - 42mm SS Milanese -
I was initially given 5-7 week time frame putting me into July. I then received an update about a week ago saying June 26 - July 2.

I really hope they are cranking these out sooner than later. I'm tired of watching her play around on her watch while I melt away on these forums.
 
I placed order for 42MM Stainless Steel Blue Leather loop on May 15 and i should have my watch tomorrow. :)
 
I ordered a 42mm sport :apple: Watch with WSB at about 2:00 EDT in Indianapolis on 7 May. My shipping window right now is 26 June to 2 July. I'm sure it will come sooner, possibly the 1st or 2nd week of June. If not I'm even more sure that I'll have it before July 2nd.
