Order Thread for UK (BST)

The magic i feel towards this product is slowly seeping away to the point i am losing interest.

This is what happens when you order something over a month ago and the last acknowledgement of your order is the confirmation email 20 seconds after said order.

Not to mention all the doom and gloom threads on here.

I need cheering up guys :(

Ok ok lets all try to remain positive!

Let's look at it this way...

If those of us with a May 12th - May 26th delivery slot think about it... that means that our Watches *COULD* be landing in the UK tonight! The time it takes from Airports to our homes could takes us up to May 12th! So really.. it means we could see some movement tonight!


Just trying to stay positive guys :p

Cheer up mate, you and HarryT are the shoulders that many here are leaning on ... we feel your anguish. It is too easy to get pseudo depressed over it but things can (and will) only get better. :)

It arrives when it arrives, no sooner and no later. When that message changes to preparing for shipping we will all feel elated! Until then ... we wait.

Had to convince my other half not to cancel hers last night, i think its worse when we have an additional £1600 sitting in the bank for the watches and the longer time goes on the more you think what else it could do.

Could have a nice sunny break away for bank holiday weekend on the 22nd for that.

Yes I wonder what these Apple EXECs have to say about this gross favouritism to the US compared with the UK or indeed Europe as a whole.

The Exec support team are calling me tomorrow. I am certainly going to bring up the situation in the UK of course. I wonder what they are 'allowed' to say though.

They probably know that whatever they say to me will be on macrumors.com straight after so I doubt they will give me much information at all.

I know, it really annoys me that not matter how annoyed and 'depressed' i get over it i will almost hit the roof when i finally see some movement and all of this will be forgotten.

They have me hook line and sinker and i can't do anything about it
 
Favouritism of the US... Apple wouldn't do that....

Apple is preparing to offer an in-store pickup option for the Apple Watch in the United States and other launch countries, listing the option as "available soon" on the Apple Online Store and Apple Store app.

Just a thought; you obviously want an Apple Watch (as you pre-ordered it). Won't you be disappointed to not be getting one at all if you cancel? Isn't a wait for something you want better than not getting it at all?

Chin up guys, next set of deliveries can't be far off. :cool:

His picture says cancelled on May 4th

Yeh noticed that soon after. I think it was the little tear that rolled down the side of my cheek that blinded me as I realised that the poor soul won't get the Watch...
 
Here's to ...

Here’s to the waiting ones. The 42 SS BSBs. The Milanese Loops. The elusive link bracelets. The square watch on our round wrists.

The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of shipping delays. And they have no respect for the Exec team updates. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they pre-ordered things. They invest. They wait. They grind their teeth. They climb walls. They procrastinate. They hit refresh. They push the watch delivery race forward.

Maybe they have to wait ...

How else can you stare at an empty wrist and see an Apple Watch? Or sit in silence and feel a taptic thump on your arm? Or gaze pictures of the device and still resist the urge to cancel?

Apple make watches for these kinds of people....

Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can work out their expected delivery date, are the ones who do.

Chin up guys ... :cool:
 
One of my orders (Pink Sports) has just changed from June to 3-5 weeks (29th May to 11th June)

At least some movement.

Happy seeing as I ordered quite late - 25th April

No movement on SS with Classic Buckle though and still June.
