Anyone living near Berlin?

Just went to "The Corner", walked right in, talked to the right guy and bought my Apple Watch Sport, 42mm White! They officially had none left but there was an Apple Guy working in the Store just for the Watches and he suddenly said that they might have one left... Few minutes later I was send to pay for it and walked out with it!! Wuhuu!

Yeah, I live in Berlin but unfortunately can't make it out and roll the dice. I checked their website and they actually say "Now available in store". I had no idea any stores in Berlin had stock. I just looked where the place was based and there's one right next to my work, too. Oh well.
 
Do you know if there were any Apple Watch left? :roll eyes:

I ordered an Apple Watch with Black Sport Band on the 10th April and got my confirmation email at 9:08 but it's still saying delivery 12-26th May.

They had none left for the day but constantly get new ones. They have some coming later this week.
 
09:03 space grey, black, get in line people :p

I hope there will be a huge batch coming this week, otherwise I will be seriously pissed. Just in case I ordered the 42mm blue with the developer program. Here they promised a shipping date of 28th. I would be very surprised if I got that one sooner.
 
So, I just talked to someone at the Apple Hotline and he told me that the watches for the first wave are already in Praque, also mine (I ordered 10.04. xx:02 !!) is already in Praque.
But as he can´t see and CC charge or reservation, I should take 2-3 days (minimum) for my order to be prepared for shipment (and then some more days for transport).
Guys, don´t get me wrong but I am so pi**ed off by apple for letting us in the dark.
Now, some receive even mails from Apple saying that they might get their order sooner.

What a HUGE MESS !! Some people should take responsibility on this.

Well, but thanks for the info! For the first time the Apple-People are speaking a little more clear. Thats the good thing about it. Too bad, that there will be no delivery on friday :-(
 
So I just decided to order my Apple Watch and send it straight to somebody I know there. Since I unfortunately don't live in any 'participating' country at this moment. I just couldn't wait, haha. :p

I'm going for the 38mm Apple Watch Sport Silver Aluminum Case with White Sport Band (later I will order the Black Sport Band, to replace the white one). Estimated delivery in June, but considering all the messages I have read about early deliveries I expect to have it at the others location before June. Of course it'll have to be delivered to my house afterwards, but that should be in no time. :)

Anyway, it's good to have at least the Apple Watch ordered. Even if I would actually receive it somewhere in June, it would still make a difference from if I would wait until I can order one here in the Netherlands. :p

Guess I'll be reloading the order page like a freak as well, haha!

Just got an email saying it's going to take 3-4 weeks like my updated status from this afternoon. (it went from 4-6 to 3-4)
Is it normal to get an email informing me about this or does this destroy any chances of the watch arriving any earlier?

I also received that mail for two of my orders.
 
Seems like Apple likes to confusing mails these days.
Angela probably wrote them.
First, the mail of death, now the mail of joy?
You´ll get your watch earlier then expected.
Freut euch :cool:

They have to be waiting for parts to arrive. If you order a 38mm non Sport now you will get it within a week of someone who ordered later on the 10th.
That would also explain the 42mm delay, they just have no parts.... :mad::mad:
Unbelievable considering the chassis was unveiled 7 month ago. :eek:

Look, they first had to make sure important people like Karl Lagerfeld, Katy Perry and so on received their watches, posted some stupid pics on instagram and then checked the feedback and finally approved the production of Apple Watch.

Plus, Angela couldn't decide which strategy to follow (Retail, Online Store or 3rd party stores, kinda stuff, you know.. ) Also, those nasty lines with filthy nerds in front of the stores. Nah.

Just let those people order online, tell them "the apple watch is coming, 04/24" and remind them by mail on 04/23 - one day before the apple watch is FINALLY COMING, JESUS CHRIST - that they ordered an apple watch.
And that its coming..... ...in the next two weeks.

Check your mails for shipment notification, get an iPhone 5s 6 or 6Plus and the latest iOS. And have a look at our fancy Apple Watch Clips online. And don´t forget to walk into a store after you received your online purchased Apple Watch and ask an Apple guy to help you putting this thing on your wrist. Isn´t it a great customer experience?
 
Just received an email from Apple that my Apple watch order is expected to be shipped within the next 2-3 weeks.

Ordered Apple watch Sport 42mm with the white band and an additional black band on April 10th round about 15:20 CET.
