42MM SS WITH WHITE SPORT BAND DISPATCHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At some point today, I'm sure..... #
At some point today, I'm sure..... #
In this midst of this controversy of religions persecution and order delay, I'm still looking forward to wasting an entire day here waiting for dispatch notifies.
Its ok, Im sure those who get the watches will keep you entertained with thousands of Apple Watch photos, e.g. Here is my Apple Watch next to my spicy pork salad.
Sigh,
I am in the position were my Space Grey Sport got an AEOD, but the other halfs Silver/Green Sport paid for, and prepping for despatch.
The issue we have is we were swapping bands, so although I am happy one will be on the way it sort of blows because neither of us are going to bother sorting them out until we get the SG sport.
To be honest Apple always maintained there would be a window in which you would get delivery, I can't say I'm entirely happy but as long as they stick to the window that would be good enough for me.
The real crime here isn't the lack of watches, its the transparency that Apple have lacked in the order process. Maybe some notification of stock level prior to ordering would have been a nice idea, for instance I might have ordered the Silver/Green Sport instead of SG if I knew it was limited, but to be honest probably not I can wait. Seeing as this is something we want and I wasn't the only one screaming take my ********* money at my macbook Wed (a first for me) I doubt Apple would win either way regardless of what they did.
Anyway - the other half says that if I don't do some bloody work this week instead of looking here she's going to start hurting me.
To all getting apple watches tomorrow, enjoy and don't forget to flash off to any Android boys about, and post lots of pictures, I will be looking with envious eyes.

Don't worry dude, mine is not coming on Friday. While I sit a work I'll work with you to keep this thread in good humour
2+2 = 5
Apple seems to have sent this to only some people, it seems that a lot of these people have the same configuration of watch on order (42 SS BSB) and I don't believe that any of this configuration has shipped.
Given that other configurations that were ordered much later than a lot of us who did order this configuration are seeing movement.
apple seems to be trying to manage the expectations of those who will not be receiving the watches on Friday.
Slight difference between homophobic comments (if that's what you mean by a "gay joke") and misquoting the Lord's Prayer for supposed comic effect.
So the shipped thread seems to have Americans, Canadians and Germans in. Hoping that means we're going to be soon.
I have had stuff come from Amazon in Wales next-day without dispatch until late evening (since they often have a 6pm-ish cutoff for Prime next-day) so I wouldn't worry if we don't get anything throughout the day.

I won't lie, at first I thought you guys were talking about the Francis who raged against his X-Box, you know, this guy?

Skip to about the 3:20 mark for the good stuff but just know that there's some language so possibly NSFW.
Tell me about it. I've done basically zero work this week, even with clients chasing. DON'T THEY KNOW I HAVE A WATCH NOT ARRIVING ON FRIDAY?
Urban Dictionary says "A snot nosed Homosxual - usually called Samsupernova - who lurks on interactive messageboards, snottily disparaging those who have a political persuasion that is other than wish-washy liberal"
I presume he was trying to make some comment about something or an other,
