An apple employee just informed me that payments would be taken between 17:19 and 17:32

They only take payments between those times if you have a specific watch + strap combination, and live in a specific region, and it depends on your postcode and how many cats you have.
 
On the Order Status Page I'm now getting:

We're Sorry.

I dont quite get the health app. It seems to measure things at random - e.g. been to gym (standing up most of time) today but still says I have only stood up 2 out of 12 times!

Did you find it tracked your heart rate well whilst at the gym? I wanted something that would give me an indication of my spin class progress.

Also does it track steps as well, I found the VIVOfit semi addictive in tracking/beating my walking records all with the benefit of free Starbuck (with Pruheath cover)
 
I'm going to be so disappointed when it comes back up and I'm greeted with that cheerful "Processing" status
 
I know this probably won't help but the novelty of getting and using the watch quickly wears off. I like the product but it has limited functionality and before mine arrived on Friday, I was like you guys - but the anticipation outweights the actual product by some way.

The most exciting part was unboxing it! Beautiful packaging

I like the watch, it has its place but it isnt game changing......yet and def not worth the frenzy we all whipped up on here.

I suspect this might be the case. In fact, I know it will be.

Long term, I do hope that the Watch has some utility, which will be the reason to keep it around.

All this waiting around is driving me crazy though :p

Apple Employee #1: "Ha this is hilarious, these guys are going nuts on this forum"
Apple Employee #2: "Hmm, what else can we do to mess with them?"
AE #1: "I know! Let's take the store offline; they'll think it relates to their orders being updated."
AE #2: "TOTALLY! That'll ***** them right up. Lolz"
AE #1: "By the way, has your watch arrived yet?"
AE #2: "No. B@stards"
 
You have to ask the question. What do these OoMpa Loompas do all day?

All it is:

1. Pick up wtach box
2. scan
3. put watch in a box
4. put on sticker with address
5. pass to other oompa loompa to take to the lorry
6. press authorize payment

Why does it take until 5 o´clock every night?



and then somebody presses another button on the computer that does something else
 
Can't be anything to do with an update of the orders

I only placed an order yesterday for the SS with black buckle and I'm receiving the same message
