So pessimistic. I'll grant you as time rolls merrily on it looks less and less likely. But until close of business on Thursday no one can say with any certainty what will and will not be shipped.

No one anywhere has seen the SS BSB orders move. So either Apple haven't manufactured a single SS black sport band, which lets be honest seems unlikely, or the order processing for them hasn't been done.

This guy speaks true. Thank you kind Sir.
 
Ok I ordered three watches a blue sports, green sports and steel with classic leather.

The green says preparing to dispatch the steel also says the same but the blue sports says 4-6 weeks

Apple have taken the £1277 for all three.

I'm hoping that actually means I get all three :)
 
LOL!! Are you joking? Where was your proof that your 'logic' was true? Was it confirmed by Apple?

I am saying it has turned out to be incorrect based on what we have seen today. Everyone's watch would need to be 'preparing for shipping' when it is, funnily enough, 'preparing to ship'. If yours hasn't, chill out and wait until they get yours.

It's not difficult.

Yes it has been confirmed by Apple in the 24/04-08/05 date range they gave people in the email confirmation they received.
 
Guys, you could get charged today at 4pm like most people did yesterday and still get your watch on Friday.

They'll have thousands of watches to go through and allocate to orders. Just don't give up hope until late tomorrow night!

This is what I'm hoping for, 4pm today lol
 
Still no pending charges from Apple on my First Direct account for the Space Grey 42mm, although the 38mm green sports appeared yesterday and is already at preparing for shipment.

Looks like my wife is going to get her watch before me, and she doesn't even care when it arrives! Oh the cruelty.
 
42mm Apple Watch + black Sport Band, email at 8:06 still stuck on Processing and I haven't been charged yet. Wondering if getting AppleCare+ and including it in the same delivery was a mistake..
 
Yes it has been confirmed by Apple in the 24/04-08/05 date range they gave people in the email confirmation they received.

If, as you've consistently pointed out over the past couple of days, you're convinced that the watch won't ship until next week why are you hanging around the forums this week?

Exactly, and as time progresses, it is looking more likely that you are in the later end of that bracket if you haven't been charged, or your order hasn't been updated.

There is every possibility yours could still be updated, stop getting b****y with other people just because we have had our confirmation now and you haven't.
 
I hope everyone doesn't ditch the forums when their watch comes on Friday while I sit staring at them while drowning my sorrows in spicy pork salad.

Same, I hope people who get their watches Friday provide us with feedback on different models, that'd be great.
 
Oh so you know for a FACT that nobody has had one charged in the WORLD do you? Nope, didn't think so. And one person here from HK HAS had a charge.


Aww did someone pee in your cornflakes this morning.

No one anywhere refers to these forums, as we're all here talking about it as a worldwide audience. And yes I saw the HK post earlier and I've no reason not to believe it, but until more than one person on here has the same I'll take it with a pinch of salt.

There's a lot of us in the same boat, I'm waiting on my SS BSB as well. I'm just not getting overly worked up about it because based on my past pre-orders with Apple, not being charged two days before delivery is nothing new. And more importantly, if needs be, what's another two weeks of waiting after all this time.

Again. I have had a confirmation for one watch. I'm getting bitchy because people are NOT excepting the fact it MAY be latter than they had hoped! And people giving out useless unsubstantiated nonsense like the shipping from China nonsense are not helping.
 
42mm Apple Watch + black Sport Band, email at 8:06 still stuck on Processing and I haven't been charged yet. Wondering if getting AppleCare+ and including it in the same delivery was a mistake..

Nope, never fear. They just haven't processed this particular combination. Anyone who has been watching here closely for 3 days would agree they are running in clear waves of style and strap. The SS BSB will be one of the most popular models, they will have stock, they are working though in an order. Believe!

I'm not getting worked up about it being delivered next week. I am getting worked up at people saying nonsense about "China shipments and the SS black sports band is in the country already" unsubstantiated nonsense.

Again. Nonsense. How do you know this for sure? And there have been NO CLEAR WAVES other than a few US folks getting the SS 38mm billing yesterday.
