Anyone in the merseyside area who was preparing to dispatch now on dispatched? 8.05am sport 42mm blue band was charged Wednesday and changed to preparing last night? Still not dispatched tho :/

Perhaps then the watch faces should have been sold seperately from the bands.

Plus its very hard for me to feel sorry for Apple. They are a huge company that can handle large manufacturing. They have dealt with huge launches in the past more successfully.

When they had like 3 models to deal with, not about 20...

How, they're all handled pretty much the same online every time? You order as fast as you can, you get it as quickly as they can?

38mm SG ordered and and see "Preparing for dispatch" as of yesterday.

Bank with Natwest and they don't provide live updates of transactions so can't tell if I've been charged (though I assume so).

Slightly o/t but which CCs to provide live updates (and apps with push notifications) of transactions. Need to know when money is taken out for future apple and spicy pork purchases.

Time for a new CC...

And now dispatched! Tracking number isn't working on UPS site though...

Of course more stock is coming! It isnt some limited run of things. Do you want Apple to constantly post that they're making more stock?

And minus the odd slip up it has been, per model. Ive read almost all of the 5000+ posts here. Were seeming pretty good to be honest.

Angela hasn't screwed up just because you didnt get your watch. Shes a lot more apple than any of the retail heads since the original. Shes a really nice person with a great vision for apple. Its a one of launch experience based on the lack of supply. Something that comes from making like 20 models.

She might be 'nice' but she hasnt justified her salary. I am not the only one without a watch yet ordered within 120 seconds of the site going live.

As for stock.. well there has been no further processing today, so stock has clearly dried up. A statement about when the next batch is due would be nice, and they do have this information.

People who have ordered later have had their identical configuration processed and shipped. There are several examples of this.
 
Woop woop. Finally dispatched via UPS.

Am down South. 38mm SS with BSB. Confirmation at 8:02:37s. STILL haven't been charged. Changed to "Preparing for Dispatch" at around 2pm yesterday.

If any of this seems familiar to your predicament, don't give up hope!

Angela is head of retail - she has nothing to do with the fulfilment of online orders.

ASW 42 blue sports band and AW 42 Milanese just changed to Dispatched via UPS estimated delivery 24th to Bridlington, East Riding of Yorkshire. Have tracking and Delivery Numbers but no further info at present.

Ordered emails 10-04 at 8:09 and 8:06 respectively.

Good luck to all still waiting. Tomorrow will be a long day as UPS don't usually get here to al least 14:00.
 
DISPATCHED!!!!!

42mm Space Grey just dispatched right now!

Jrobert... have faith!

Edit:
Email confirmation came at 15:10
