Which one did you get?
 
SS 42 classic buckle. They had some sport and Milanese loop. Not sure what else they had. Apparently appointments for today and tomorrow now all taken. Think you can only book an appointment for that day if they have them and the next day.

Which one did you use if you don't mind me asking?

I used https://www.forward2me.com. Very positive so far, acting fast, freedom of choice for a wide range of logistics companies (UPS, DHL, TNT, DPD, etc.). I went with UPS (because of my bad experiences with DHL), however the only downside for UPS was an additional 20pnd for insurance to cover the more expensive watches. You can choose not to, however I couldn't opt out after enabling the insurance for the 1st time.

Thanks for the response. I picked that one as well. Very quick turnaround (barely an hour). Picked DHL as a courier though. Hope to receive the watch Monday or Tuesday.
 
Quick tip - Watch apps..

Hi -

A couple of quick tips for when you set up your watches for the first time (I hope the will be soon for all of you).

When it asks if you want to install all available watch apps I found it easier to say No and then selectively install the ones you actually will use. Otherwise you end up with a whole heap of apps that are actually pretty useless and just clutter up the interface.

Once you have installed the ones you actually want to use (which is very easy to do in fact) then the next thing to do is to rearrange them so that the ones you are most likely to use are nearer the centre and thus easy to access without dragging around or scrolling. Again rearranging your apps is easy to do from within the iPhone Watch app.

Hope someone finds the above useful.
 
Noticed someone mentioned that they got their 38mm sport WSB just a couple of days after ordering. Decided to bite the bullet and get the same one, ETA 19-27th May though. Hopefulły sooner!

I did this at first but then couldn't work out how to do them individually?

You open up the apple watch app on your iPhone and scroll down to the app(s) you want to install, open it and then select Show app on apple watch. You can also select if you want to enable/disable glances for that app or even uninstall an app from the apple watch from there

Nope. Next deliveries will be on Monday. Hopefully charges on Tuesday and new Dispatches on Wednesday/Thursday.

As some people (me) have delivery windows that start May 12th whereas the U.S. Is May 13th I suspect some people in that window will get watches may 12th therefore
Charges Monday, ships Monday night, on my wrist Tuesday :) I feel it coming
 
I have got two 42mm SS watches on processing, black sport band ordered 4th May and white sports band ordered 7th May.

Which one you guys think will come quickest? i want to cancel one as i have the band i want to use already, so not bothered which one comes.

Black was ordered earlier, but i think white is in less demand :confused:

i was hoping for one before my holiday 15th June, could happen, but which one is more likely?

any input would be appreciated as I've not been following the shipments as much as people from the start.
