Ordered at 8:01 on the iPhone app.

Getting the 38mm SS with classic buckle

Smoothest pre order ever but shame about them not doing in-store pickups on launch day.


Anyone have any luck ordering a sports band that had delivery on launch day? I keep getting quoted 28/4 - 13/5. Will try my luck in store.
 
Where did you make the reservation?

The section underneath the main Apple Watch page, there's a paragraph of text and then it says 'Schedule your appointment' or something along those lines.

Nice. :)
 
All complete, it was so easy, it took me, literally, 30 seconds. Why use the site when the app is so much better?

The waiting game begins :(
 
Order placed 4-6 weeks for the SS with leather loop :( anyone know if during that time i decide to go to the Apple Store and try one on and i change my mind could i cancel my order and re-order a different one?

Should be able to cancel until they put it in a UPS box :)

Would've thought so but your order could slip back.
 
Ordered the 42mm Aluminium with the white strap and also ordered the black sports strap so I can have a silver alu/black strap combo which I think is nicer than the space grey/black strap.

Odd thing is the best delivery time for the black strap is 30/4- 13/5. I was expecting the strap delivery time to be sooner.
 
SS Sport band confirmed for 24th.

Also manged to book my try appointment for today at 1400 Regent street (that part proved to be more tricky then the actual pre order)
 
Stainless steel with classic buckle still available for the 24th in both sizes.

Does your email conf definetly say delivery on 24th?
 
38 mm SS milanese 24th-8th confirmed. How do we make an appointment for try on? I can't find it anywhere.
 
I'm sure this will be covered in a multitude of new threads shortly, but there will be probably be stock in various stores and re-sellers on the 24th onwards, for purchase there and then. I bet a lot of people (I will certainly consider it), will buy there then return the pre-order when it arrives.

Have an appointment at midday to try them on and then cancel the others...

So dilema is;
>do I wait for 4 weeks for Space Black < Have to really love it if Im honest.
>or do I bag the Milanese Loop or Sports Strap on the launch day...

All will become clear once I get one on my wrist later today :D
