Guys, do you reckon who's already been charged is going to get it on Friday? Hopefully not Saturday as I put my office address
I wish I could just fall asleep now and wake up on Friday morning...
It's a good guess, yes. Until we start getting tracking numbers, it's all guesswork. I'd reckon anyone that's been charged will get there's Friday, since it's a logical assumption.
Order Thread for UK (BST)
We don't know what went on behind the scenes, supposedly there was screen yield issues. **** happens and they've done the best they can. Angela isn't the one to blame for lack of stock tho, which is what people here are doing. Blame Tim or someone else for that. Some people on here are acting like petulant children.

Because he was so infallible, never had any failures, like MobileMe, Ping....
Also, after the last few weeks, why do people put so much stock in what Apple Chat reps say? These people also claimed the watch came with 2 complete bands, not one and a half! Common sense is lacking a lot in this forum...

Just checked my bank account and my available balance is around £500 less than the amount presently in my account. My Apple order was £339 and I haven't made any other big purchases so hoping its that.
My Apple order is still processing so no updates on that side of things.

They have got it right, they sold every watch they made, that's a success. And if a few self entitled jerks get their feelings hurt along the way it won't matter as in a couple of months everyone will be able to go pick one up in a store and will wonder what all of the fuss was about.

Example: a video by the verge called "Apple watch review, it's finally here" ...that looks like a retail fully functional unit to me?
Can you imagine how embarrassing it will be - you're the 1st to get apple watch, everyone wants to see it and then the awkwardness while it hangs on a loading screen. That should not happen! I can't keep defending apple any more, I'm tired.
Just cancelled my order for the black sports strap, ordered Milanese loop instead, looks tidy!

Have you seen one in person?
No one here cares about Canada. Move along
As a Canuck living in the UK, am I allowed in here?
ps
payment taken earlier today
They're early production units, not actual retail ones. They're given to sites to review, on the basis that they are early versions, and that there has/will be software update between those people getting those versions and when us Customers get ours.

I will allow you to stay
Available balance has reduced by cost of Apple Watch Sport White. No other evidence of anything yet.
IMHO I thought it was ugly. It reminded me of the second hand watches I used to see at bootfairs as a kid.
The Milanese loop is very nice, it doesn't feel like metal, it's more like a sturdy canvas or cloth feel.
Nope I don't believe they exist at this point! Literally every other combination has been posted about apart from this one. There are loads of us waiting. They can't possibly have NONE, can they?
Interesting, I was undecided on this one or the blue leather one. It doesn't ship until June so will pop to store and check a few out and cancel if I don't like.
Will store have stock of straps on Friday does anyone know?
Going by the shipping dates for straps if you order today, I doubt it. They will still have them for you to try on though.
