SODS is definitely being updated. It's about doubled in size since I last looked at it
No were near I think
I'm waiting on a link bracelet----------
I decree that this will be my last Monday in work without an apple watch on my wrist!
Tell me I'm wrong
I think the likelihood of the Blue Sport 38mm shipping (in the UK) as fast as we're seeing in the US is slim. I ordered on Friday and have the same date for dispatch as the 38mm Space Grey that I placed an order for on the 10th! I keep hovering over that 'Cancel' button for the blue watch but... should I keep it open?
I should add that my delivery date of 'June' has been updated to a 20/05/15-02/06/15 today/

I agree with you, I pre ordered very quickly online and went to the DSM today because I was tired of not hearing anything. I couldn't work out why they wouldn't use there own store until I read the earlier post where someone said the intention was to always have the watches sold at apple stores but due to later manufacture and a pre written contractual agreement with DSM and the other stores dotted in major cities, they legally had to supply them with the stock that had been agreed. Made allot more sense once I had heard the reasoning. But it doesn't make it any more fare.
Sorry, no good news here, just thought I'd share my convo with an apple store guy just now.
Right this is simple. Why has my order status not yet changed? I ordered my watch W****** just a minute after launch, and yet almost all people who ordered after me recieved their watch on launch day! I havent even had an update! I dont need to hear 'it depends on payment type or style ordered', i dont need to hear ' your order will be delivered between 24/4-8/5'. I NEED to hear WHEN I will recieve an update!
?
I do apologize for the inconvenience. There is no update that I can provided at this time. As soon as it ships out, youll receive a shipment notification via email. Your order status wont change until it prepares for shipment.
will that be this week?
your welcome to check this against my apple ID but I do have a birthday on friday to prepare for
?
Theres no way to know for sure when your order will ship because its done automatically through the system. As soon as it ships, you will get the notification though. It seems like you already have the all the information in regards to your order thats available at this time.
So you dont have access to this 'system' that dictates (unfairly) who recieves their orders when?
The system is automated, theres no way to access when statuses will change and when your order will ship out. As soon as it does, you are sent the tracking information.
Okay, do you understand why one might find this frustrating? I think it should be note in future that more detailed estimates are needed! you cant let a launch date go by and now give some people ANY update whilst delivering to others! its crazy
I do apologize for the inconvenience. I can initially understand wanting to get your Watch as soon as possible. Im currently waiting for mine to ship sometime in June. What are you planning to do first with you Watch when it arrives?
Well June is a while away, and therefore you dont need to worry just yet about when you recieve it, bu i can promise you. if it gets to mid june and youve still not had an update, you'll be panicking like me
personally i quite fancy something to tell me the time
Keep in mind that you can keep an eye out on your order at apple.com/orderstatus, or by using the Apple Store App. It's super convenient. The most information in regards to your order will always be available.
well i appreciate that, i never knew there we're ways to check an order's status on my phone! one last question! will ANY UK apple watch orders be DISPATCHED thie WEEK?
and thank you for your time
Theres no way to know for sure when any items will ship, the system is what handles the processing. Are you currently in the UK?
yes

Yeah that's me... Bought the SG 42 sport with the 24/4-8/5 sloth on eBay. Now I keep an eye on this forum and i hope he gets the watch soon. Then another couple of days to get the package from London to the Netherlands.
Whilst obviously frustrating, I don't quite understand what kind of answer you were actually expecting to receive from someone who you probably already knew couldn't give you an answer.
A good friend of mine USED to work at an apple store in the genius bar, I was talking to him today and he was telling me they used to get allot of answers from this forum before they would hear anything from Apple. Kind of says it all really
Just think of the interest on our money we are all either making or saving while waiting for our cards to be charged. Each day make our watches a little cheaper than the guy that got them on Friday.
