Preparing for Dispatch
SS LB 42mm, ordered at about T+ 8h10m
Was starting to think it'd be next week. Looks like they've cleared, or almost cleared out all launch day Link Bracelets in the 42?
Hopefully next day or two delivery... ^^

Apparently it's around 29g of gold, which at 18 carat is 'only' £482 based on these prices: http://www.royalgoldbuyers.co.uk/gold-price-per-gram.html
Edition is certainly priced on exclusivity, not actual value
Dispatched by UPS, arriving tomorrow, Last few UPS deliveries have arrived by 09.45. Happy days.
So my watch still hasn't gone to dispatched on the website, guessing I'm not getting it tomorrow then?

Yes, like basically all gold watches
My 8:02am Stainless Steel Space Black has updated to 'Preparing for Dispatch' today.
I'm now in a bit of a quandary though, as having seen the change, I went to check my credit card account online to see if I had been charged, only to find that in the past few days I've had a couple of large fraudulent transactions, with another £2500+ worth of pending transactions I can't yet see.
Given the Apple Watch order now can't be cancelled, I would assume that those pending transactions include it, but due to the fraud, the bank has cancelled my card anyway. So I'm not sure whether it's actually going to get sent out now.

Suggest you change your card on account. When they actually go to get the money it may get declined and they will need another source.
Why didn't our UK orders go from PFD to dispatched over night? They have just sat on PFD for hours now. (Ss Space black 42mm)
From earlier posts in the thread I get the impression that this isn't unusual. There seems to be a bit of a spread.
Same, my order went PFD last night at around 2000h-ish, does anyone know what the average time is to go from PFD to shipped/out for delivery?
One guy said a few pages back he was at PFD for 30 hours! So we might not see any movment until 11pm tonight or there abouts.
There is no normal time as such. However if it was set to PFD yesteday I would say there is a very high chance it will go to Dispatched some time today before midnight, out for delivery tomorrow.
Same thing happened to a load of us last week. I was at PFS for over 24h. It changed to shipped the afternoon after going PFS and delivered the day after.
If this holds true, you should see delivery tomorrow if you went PFS yesterday. Oh, and I wasn't charged until several days after delivery! Go figure!
My 42 SS BSB that i ordered @ 15:30 on 10/04 is now Preparing for Dispatch. Had the 12/05-26/05 delivery span.
Selling it to a mate who is still waiting for his June 42 SS BCB, and he will cancel that.
Glad I got my 42 SS WSB v quickly, think I'd have gone insane by now.

Im tempted to get myself one as I'm just about to get a redundancy pay off and 6 weeks pay from a new job all in one..
But I'm borking at paying £800 for the one I want, (apple watch with a metal link strap).
Is it possible just to buy the sport and stick a metal link strap on it?
