If this turns out to be a black band problem, I'll be fuming! I had to order a green sport band as that's the colour I want but I wanted the space grey watch. Why can't they let us pick and choose properly?
Got a tip for us?

I hate the waiting I'm driving myself mad with paranoia thinking that something is gonna go wrong with the order like payment being declined then having to start all over againI just want apple to email me and say everything is ok lol
I'm already kicking myself for cancelling my 30mm SS BSB that I ordered on the 10th for a 38mm Milanese on the 21st. I COULD HAVE JUST SWAPPED THE BAND.
Do not despair.
I think we need to be realistic, it could be next week
My heart is saying and hoping for this week. But my head tends to agree with your statement.
That thing where you check the order status on the website and every time the word "Dispatched" catches your eye first and you get a brief feeling of joy until you see the 4-6 weeks next to it and "Processing" above...
That disheartening feeling when everyone here starts posting that their watch has been dispatched and you're stuck on processing.
Just added my three orders to the spreadsheet. Originally ordered 42 mm SG but added a 42mm AWS with blue and white band after hearing those were shipping quicker. Not really bothered about which I get. Like the space grey, blue is my favourite colour and the white will match my iPhone 6. Whichever ships first is the keeper!
I ordered a SB 42 sports with black band on the 10th then I stupidly went into the apple shop on saturday to have a look and the guy said I could try them on so ended up walking out with an order for a 42mm SS Milanese for me and a 42mm SS BSB for the other half and cancelled my order for the sports now gotta wait until June...Why oh why didn't I just keep walking past the store

Yep keep doing that and now I've got my charger at the top that says dispatched its even worse
Can you take a picture? I am interested to see if I should go there to line up!
I spoke to the apple guy about DSM and he said he thinks its fake and a bit dodgy and I was like errr wasn't it apple that chose them to sell it in the first place and how comes hundreds of people are getting their watch from there successfully

I went on Friday. I can understand why the Q is so long- it takes them so long to process the sale once you actually get to the check out. I understand its nice to have a chat, but its obvious that they've never done anything like this before and were un-prepared for the number of people. Just from the point of reaching the counter (where I had already selected my watch and it was behind the counter to pay) to walking out the store took about 8 minutes, which is longer than it needs to be. 8mins * the number of people in the Q, thats why you get these delays at DSM.
They should just have a till for people who know what they want to buy and walk out. In and out in 4 minutes.
Good luck to both of you. Hope you get the watches your after. Be sure to give us updates. And let me know if its worth me going there on Thursday?
I have heard they have also said you can queue without without one incase there is a no show or cancellation kinda goes against what they say on their site
lets hope you get one
That is a lot of people! I'm assuming that these are people without appointments ?
