I hope so - but then I hoped that about last week too
Depending on the lag between US and UK shipments, the xx:09s should be moving this week. This guy ordered at xx:09:59 and he is seeing movement...
I'm keeping an open mind and trying to be optimistic. I ordered on 21/04 as I was in two minds on the eve of preorder day.
I want everyone who ordered on preorder day to get theirs ASAP so mine comes sooner than its current estimate of 20/05

I popped into the Wonder Room at Selfridges on the weekend and spoke to an Apple Watch assistant there. He said they had limited stock of the 38mm watches for the time being (I thought Selfridges was try-ons only, didn't even realise they were selling them at Selfridges). Hoping there will be some more 42mm stock coming to the UK in the coming weeks.
I'm a 08:09er and I would like to assume we will see some movement today. How fast have people found going from processing to PFS to being at their door?
i orderd on the 12th and on the impending list of June. I think they seriously underestimated how many people would want one. its kind of put me off pre ordering with apple again if I am honet. still realy excited for my watch I have to say 42mm sg bsb
Just saw ej2k mention that selfridges had them and I suddenly ran to their website thinking they may have a tiny online boutique with some, then on the website it says "buy now" so I hit the button thinking I've found a special secret online stash of apple watches that may not take till June to arrive and when the page loads I find myself staring at the Apple Store again!

08.11 here, think we will probably see some movement with most of the early orders over the next few days.
Just a gut feeling.

Well it's got to be this week or next week to hit my delivery slot on time I reckon. The week after has another bank hol. Monday which will throw deliveries tits up again!
Currently waiting on my watch dispatched on Thursday. Should have been delivered Friday but for an apparent error with my address; whether this is Apple or UPS is uncertain but two calls to UPS on Friday have left me slightly seething. Definite miscommunication between the two.
Selfridges
Off the back of ej2k's comment I zipped over to Selfridges on my break, they still have 38mm sports watches in every colour except green. And no Space Black. Which is the one I ordered, so it's back to the end of May for me.
They were also selling someone a stainless steel watch, although I didn't enquire about available sizes and bands for that range. Sorry.
Hi btw.

i ordered on 29/04 but still just says 'June', did yours initially say June and then change to a specific date or did it start with a date when you ordered?
My 42 SS Milanese just been delivered today ( overnight !!! ) from last Thursday to NE Scotland - it's been sat in the UPS depot in Dundee since Friday !
Not had time to get it set up yet - but for everyone who is still waiting, frustrated etc - it is a beautiful looking piece of kit - would add my agreement to those who have already said to hang in there and not cancel ! Think you would regret it - and must say that my own frustration at waiting for it has just gone out the window now that it is here
Hope everyone gets theirs very soon - and as I say hang in there folks, it will come and if you're like me the waiting frustration will seem like a bad dream once you have it

i was one of the stupid ones to wait and ordered late (29/04) for 42mm SG BSB, obviously still on processing - 'June' but i am just wondering will i see it change to a more specific date/dispatch date frame before it actually gets sent? the reason i am asking is because i am going to Australia for 3 weeks on the 5th July and would like to know if my order is going to be here before then. As i really dont want to wait through June just to go on holiday without it even being delivered yet? Thanks for any help in advance
Seriously impossible to tell at this stage. It's been a strange roll out. I ordered on 10/04 8:03 (SS Link) and got the early window starting tomorrow. Not heard a thing (but plenty have this variation already if ordered separately). Neither have the Leather Loops/Modern Buckle.
You could be in for a long wait before any info reaches you, it's all a bit random!
Yeah i thought so, Thank you for your reply. I know its going to be a long wait would just be nice if they found some method of letting people know something a bit sooner than 'ITS COMING'. Just really want to know if i should keep my 42mm SG BSB and hope my 'June' date means it will reach me in June and not when i go on holiday on July 5th, see the thing is if i knew now it wasn't getting here before July 5th i'd suck up my pride and get a 38mm (normal sport with any colour that means it comes quick) that seems to be rolling out fast.
I honestly believe you will have it, at the very least, by the end of the timeframe you were given-don't cancel.
The only reason I hesitate is because of the weirdness of the LL/Link/MB bands-which to be fair, aren't late but have been handled strangely because of the separates issue.
i like to think so and its nice to see some positivity. I just want it to change from June to a date frame as i could know then if i'm in for a scary game of 'Please come before the 5th July so i don't go on a 3 week holiday without it' haha. I think they will ramp up the orders for the space grey watches as i've been checking over the site and a lot of watches that were on June or July have gone down to as little as 1-2 weeks etc (mainly 38mm) but i think they will go mad making 42's soon.
meant to be delivered today, but got it on Saturday, still not sure about it, defo keeping it, but not sure. Had it on all day yesterday, & still managed to miss a few notifications (watch on silent & have turned up haptic on iPhone app), maybe just takes getting used to!
Sorry you didn't have any luck. Surprised green was sold out - assumed that colour wouldn't be as popular for some reason! Thanks for getting a bit more detail on availability though

Any of the usual Apple releases and I might have plumped for another model, but I'm quite skeptical of the watch, its usefulness, its price, and the dreaded refresh cycle.
Happy, if subtly frustrated, to wait for the model I'm interested in most!
