It's complete madness isn't it?

Seems the Space Greys are the ones massively held up. My 10/4 42mm SG is still processing. Will be getting cancelled as soon as my watch arrives tomorrow.
I went 42mm silver sport with green band thinking this would be the least popular and I'd swap the band for a cheaper 3rd party one. Seems to have paid off as it's arriving tomorrow.
 
Space Grey 42mm Black Sport Band

Order status just changed to Dispatched a few mins ago. Not got tracking info or an official email from Apple yet so I guess the wheels are still turning on that bit.

Sequence of events (all times UK BST GMT+1)
Order: 08:04:47hrs on 10/04
Prep for dispatch: 15:35hrs on 29/04
Dispatched: 22:20hrs on 29/04
Location: Near Glasgow

Hang in there folks - this is a lot better than the delivery date I was originally given which was between May 14 and May 28. Assuming of course the watch turns up in the next day or so. :)

Update: Shipping via UKMail. Apple site says expected delivery 25th MAY!! UKMail reckon tomorrow (30/04) which I am hopeful is more accurate! Only one more sleep until Apple Watch day... :)

Good luck to those remaining who still are yet to receive their :apple: watches.

It's been fun; now let's see what tomorrow brings!

Exactly my thinking after hearing about movement in the US. I went with two additional orders both 42mm AWS, one with blue band and one with white. Amazingly it's the last watch ordered that came through! Will see what I think of the white band as it matches my iPhone 6. If I don't like it I'll swap it out.
 
I got one coming with UK Mail and one coming with UPS. Makes for an interesting day in tomorrow.
 
I don't know how I am going to make it to my delivery window of 14-27 May. I ordered on launch day but I've ordered the modern buckle so god knows when that will arrive. I'm addicted to this thread but it's killing me as well:eek:

Ooohh weird dates. 12-26 for me
 
Just received the shipping notification email. Confirms tomorrow as the delivery date but does not confirm the courier. :eek:
 
Ordered sport space grey at 8.04 on launch day and got a delivery of 12/5 to 26/5.

I've just checked the store app now (for about the 50th time today - me, impatient???) and I've got a preparing for dispatch. Yay!

Given that the dispatch date is still at least 2 weeks away, are Apple messing with my mind or is there a chance they're going to send it out within the next day or so?

Dispatched and email confirmation from Apple. Get in. Unfortunately I'll have to go to the depot as I won't be in when the delivery comes. Still, much earlier than expected!
 
Got a pleasant surprise today when I was out in London and got an Apple Store notification that my watch had been shipped! SS 42, BSB. Should be getting delivered tomorrow ! (Although I'm at uni at the moment and won't get it until I go home on Friday, but that's something to look forward to) :D
