The days almost over!!! We've been awake all night waiting for our orders to ship #
What's the widget bottom right?
84% battery and I've had it on since about 8:30am. Not too bad, this should definitely last a day.
We're in it together
Who's doing the UPS flight tracking then? #
Me too, order confirmation at 8:05. There are Americans on reddit with the same model and XX:04 orders that are getting charged and preparing for dispatch. Hopefully the UK is next.
I Preordered my Aluminium Space Grey Black Strap Watch at 0803 on the 10th and like many still stuck in limbo with no explanation from Apple.
I have now ordered a SS black Strap today and has an anticipated time of June. You never know and then pigs might fly over the Thames.
Decided that if My orders haven't progressed by Monday morning then I am going to Dover Street Market at the crack of dawn.
Anyone know of the lay out and do apple shop there have their own door?
Thanks.

Just discovered that I can unlock my MacBook Air with my watch!!!!

I think so too. I charged mine up yesterday as I was going out in the evening. Took it off the charger at 5 pm. As of 1.30 pm I have 40 % charge left. So that's almost a full 24 hours. Granted I slept last night but I think that's still pretty good I've been up since about 7 am this morning. Went to bed just before 12 last night.

I've had about 10 emails/texts/other notifications, and played with it for about 15 minutes on Instagram/Shazam/BBC News, and probably looked at the time a good 30 times.
81% now, dropped 3% in forty minutes.
how?!
It is indeed Tokyo time. I used to live there, have a lot of friends there and it's useful having the time there so I can just call them without calculating the time difference
how?!
I've got this app called mac ID installed on my MacBook Air and 6 plus. Had been using Touch ID on my iPhone to unlock my Mac. However it just popped up on my watch did I want to unlock it and I said yes and it unlocked!

Good luck.
I've had my watch on since half seven this morning, after it had a full charge overnight. It's been getting used a fair bit, as I've been testing a game on it this morning. As well as the normal daily stuff.
According to the usage monitor on the iPhone watch app, its been on standby for 6 hours 15 minutes and used for 1 hour 42 minutes.
It's not been near a charger since I put it on and it's sitting at 67%.
After 6 hours with plenty of use I'm really impressed with that, granted I did drop my brightness down to it's lowest setting as I find that plenty bright enough for me. But still, it should get me through a day easily.

Cool!
Yes, it all started happening in the US yesterday... we need some of those flights diverted to the UK though!
Superb. 82% battery, been wearing it since 07:30 this morning. Will last the day and more quite easily with normal use.
After two days of thinking, I went into the Apple store, cancelled my 42 SG Sport and reordered a 42 SS. After the disappointment of not getting a day one package, I got the one I really wanted even with a June date. Hope Its sooner. Feel a lot happier.
The Apple store staffer also let me play with her watch and phone, for those who don't know, the watch settings are available from the iPhone watch app along with a few extra settings (I can't remember them). Now I just have to wait for Apple to cancel the reserved charge from my debit card.
Good luck to all in 'Processing' purgotory'

Dumb question but how did you get it to come up on your watch? It only shows the notification on the watch for me and I can only dismiss it?

****ing ******** space grey order mother****ing crap!! Still ****ing mother****ing processing! Apple you ********s!!!!!!1
I've just done the weekly shop with my list on my wrist - so much more convenient than taking my phone out of my bag every few minutes! (I used the Wunderlist app)
I also enjoyed making people look
Have had mine on for 8 hours after overnight charge and it's only got 64% left. ETA Actually, that's not as bad as I thought, 4.5 % down an hour and I've used it for 77 mins.
