Forgive us our moans and groans,
as we forgive those who received their watches before us.
Lead us not into temptation (e.g. Pebble or MS Band)
but deliver us from processing hell.
For thy is the kingdom,
the power and the glory.
Now and for ever we'll love our Apple Watch.
Amen.

You need to quote the other guy, not me so it alerts him on his notifications.

Lol glad to help....my waiting is not over yet, I have the new Macbook Space grey 12" on order with a late May - June delivery date :mad::mad::mad:

my early May MacBook order went into preparing for dispatch last night, so you probably won't have to wait until June:)
 
Just ordered a White Sports Band Stainless Steel 42mm to see which dispatches first. Ordered by 42mm Space Grey Black Sports Band over two weeks ago. This should be interesting.
 
Royal **** up by UK mail. Didn't say collected until this morning, then changed to say collected, at delivery location then on a van delivery 11.33 to 12.33.

At 12.16 it says Delayed - I called them and the driver says he doesn't have the parcel. So I ask where is it and basically they don't know! Brilliant!

That's not good....when will they let you know what's going on?
 
Just had my delivery :) my tracking at one stage also said delayed. Really enjoyed reading through the thread over the last few weeks especially with the spicy pork and francis references :D
 
Been wearing the watch since 0600 and had a ton of notifications on it, it's sitting at 70% battery life. Loving it :) Turn by Turn driving directions on my wrist today was good. ;)
Glad more of us are getting deliveries today and hopefully a few more of you get watches dispatch tonight! Hang in there those processing, you'll be glad when it arrives :)
