Guys I think we all need to relax a tad, I mean there's no point arguing, being sarcastic or down right rude.
People come here venting their anxiousness. There's nothing wrong in that, god knows I've been so anxious until I received mine (sorry guys, hope you get it soon too)
Don't look at these posts as tantrums or immature comments, but as posts where people show support to one another in this processing hell.
Yes i did get my watch last Friday and my estimate was 12-26. Yes I was posting almost every day saying I hope I get it sooner than the estimate. And yes, I did feel like there was no communication from Apple during the wait. I wasn't asking for them to phone us or anything but at least an auto generated email saying we're working on your order and we're aiming to get it to you in the first/middle/end part of the estimate.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, this has been a very close and cheerful community for 600 pages, I know people are starting to lose hope, but getting angry doesn't solve anything. If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all.
On a side note I've been watching/reading this thread every day since I got my watch silently rooting for more movement for the peeps here. Go Ta4! (Hopefully tomorrow but it might look like Thursday)

I think that's up to you to decide. My hope is for tomorrow.Is that Tomorrow or Thursday now
(but probably more likely Thursday)
Is that Tomorrow or Thursday now
Sure it's not the TA4 grader used to cover all those watches, with dodgy taptic engines, that ended up in landfill?
I had an Apple watch once upon a time........
A watch I had to return due to a defect. I am not only still waiting for the replacement but I'm waiting for Apple to confirm and process the replacement.
Even though Apple arrange for a courier collection, they can't confirm they've received the watch, which should have arrived over a week ago. Of course they won't issue a replacement until they've confirmed receipt.
I tired of chasing for even an iota of information. I'm tired of being understanding and patient.
(And no I don't give a s*** that Apple had issues with he haptic component thingy. Did no one from Apple think to check up on the factory that were ********** it up?)

Weird. Did they use TNT? If so, check the orange slip they left you, it should have a tracking number on it.
Also, for what it's worth, the Watch I returned to Apple, went TNT and they did email me to say they'd received it.
The watch and band were sent using DHL express (sent separately on different days) I have the receipts and track numbers of both collections and I've passed them over to the senior applecare person.
He has to check whether the engineers have received them and only then can he issue a replacement.
In one whole week he hasn't been able to contact the elusive and ultra private engineering department. They are probably all too busy playing D&D or Call of Duty.
The Americans are apparently up to xx:12 for the Space Greys but here we are at xx:09 sitting twiddling our willies.
in other news ..... the germans had progress tonight / yest ..... just us then!
Would hope that means we are today. One thing I noticed is that bands are being shipped from the Netherlands (the box for mine had Dutch postal stickers on it), and I am aware Apple has a warehouse/large supply chain facility out there.
Might be that the watches for all of Europe are actually coming in through there and then being distributed to various countries before being dispatched.
Seeing as we can't find any pattern at all between UPS flights to the UK and shipping notifications it is quite a possibility. Makes sense to ship to your main continental supply chain facility, then distribute from there afterwards as well.
Could be wrong, but if I'm right it might mean the UK shipment arrived from Holland last night and will be scanned today. Got to keep optimistic.
lets hope so! ive got no reason to be excited anyway im june and ordered on 26th! buttttt the quicker those infront of me recieve the better!
Oh, I thought this was the tracker for our planes:

People in the U.S. who ordered my watch after me (38mm SS LB) were shipped last night so feeling very positive for mine to move this week!
Looks like someones been in this thread with the scissors. Least some of the more shall we say unhelpful posts have gone AWOL
Back on topic, who thinks there will be movement today? Anyone? No? Oh wait, of course there will be. In the USA!

Keep the faith. They'll need to start moving some soon so that they can keep to the windows with the upcoming bank holiday.
