Watch arrived in Glasgow 3 hrs before UKMail window.

The best unboxing experience I've ever had with an apple product. The quality of everything is just unbelievable.

That watch is ok too..
 
ITS HERE!! He only tried delivering it to 17! Im 27! 17 is the house opposite! As he was getting back into his van i opened the windows and screamed, 27!?
 
That's me out of the Space Grey race. I've cancelled my SG order and re-placed it for an SS with Classic Buckle instead so I can sit back and relax until June now :)

*Deep breath and relax*

Space Grey cancelled, Edition ordered. The wait begins.

Surprise, surprise - UK Mail didn't hold my watch and it had gone out for delivery. They state "Apple require at least one delivery attempt before we can hold it at the depot".

What annoyed me most though was that it took them 40 minutes to tell me that.

Managed to wangle at work to go back home to work, and took delivery at 10.40am.

One 42mm silver sport with blue strap now attached to my wrist :D

People at work asking "how do you know how to use it so well already?"... Daren't tell them I've poured over every video and how-to-guide for months!
 
My delivery was from UK Mail and they were 15 minutes early, so it all depends on the driver and how many drop offs they have to do.

I'm aware of that. If you have 1 more delivery like the email says, why does it take him / her 50+ minutes to get to me? :(
 
Yes. Have faith and he will shine his light on you.

Oh Francis, lord of all wizardry embellished with the sign of an apple, shine your light upon me and deliver me my watch as the prophet shangaichica has foretold... I have been looking out for the bearer of the light, who rides in a giant truck painted in the ugliest colours imaginable but there is no sign...
 
I went with 38mm as well and it's perfect. Feels nice on the wrist and is nicely placed, and I've been out for a run and it felt like a watch, not a gadget.

I agree. I did go for a try on after ordering but having it sit on my wrist now I know it's the right size feels very comfortable and I can still see everything I need to easily. Can't wait for my pink sports band and Milanese loop to arrive now.
 
It's beautiful !

Enjoy it everyone.

42mm SG Sport just arrived in Hassocks 30 mins before delivery window. Didn't get the email/SMS alert until after the delivery - in fact the first notification i got on the watch was the SMS from UKMail telling me i'm next :)

Watch is beautiful and smaller than i thought from the many photos posted. Took a few attempts to get it to work with iMessages but its all good now.
 
I picked up an apple watch 42mm space grey from Dover Street market in London. They had loads there

I know how you feel. I'm just about to go passed by delivery window and still waiting! Getting a but frustrating now although I have received now text or email! Common UKMAIL!

Scrap that - It just came on the final minute of the delivery bracket! Not bad UKMAIL although I feel the pain of others who've had a few issues!

Wife just sent me a pic of the box so cant wait to finish work and check it out tonight!!!!!

Just came from selfridges in Oxford street. There are about 12 employees and no customers looking at the watches. What gives?

I was there on Tuesday. It was so empty they let me try on about 6 watches. Guy said they haven't had many customers as not many people know it's there and just go to the main store down the road.
