Guys, I got mine today after waiting since 10/04. It is a great gadget, takes a little getting used to. A lot lighter than the Garmin phenix I had been rocking for the past few weeks! Here are my thoughts, enjoy!!

Interesting comparison :) I've got a vivoactive and the AW doesn't come close for outdoor activities. Did some lengths in the pool with the VA today :)
Garmin does feed into the health app? Until I got my AW, my steps were feeding in. I can't actually check the history as my phone just sits there (presumably due to the amount of historic data?), but I the graph certainly shows this.
I've now turned off steps for Garmin so the watch is the only input to stop double counting.
On the plus side as an everyday watch the AW is hands down better; mostly due to auctioning notifications (I had a fenix 1 and a vivosmart prior to the VA).
Enjoy your watches! I thought I'd be selling the VA but I think each have their uses in my life...
 
Mines been collected and currently sat 72 miles away in Tamworth :) so close but yet so far.

I'll likely be one of the first on Monday morning crying with happiness unless one of you are lucky enough to be first on the drivers list.

Well guys, got home later from work last night but my partner was in to take in the parcel from UPS and I am now proud owner of the new watch. Finally....
It really is a thing of beauty and love the blue leather loop with the space grey. I guess I will be signing off this thread until the next release. Its been a great way of keeping in touch with those receiving their watches and when and I have shared some laughs some heartache and much trepidation with like minded peeps which has helped to pass the time. Hope everyone who is still waiting gets their watches soon. It really is worth the wait and all the hassle. Kind thoughts

Well I've spent the last few weeks contemplating whether to get a sport or not. I finally bit the bullet and ordered a SG sport yesterday. Procrastination worked out quite well as delivery window dropped to 2-3 weeks so at least it saved me the agony of waiting longer (as it seems I may well get it sooner)
 
Morning all.....

2 days to go!!! :)

I've had the Personal Setup email from Apple, Syncreon says its in Gloucester, but UK Mails tracking service doesn't give much info:

2 days to go!!! Can't wait :) I've been worrying about this Arabic/unicode message thing though :( I have friends who would probably do it.

Hope Apple releases a fix very soon!
 
Ukmail tracking will show nothing else until about 8.30am on Monday then you will get a drop delivery time and a slot number to follow. you can also setup notify me when i am next delivery.

They just told me "technically" I can go and get it today from the depot, but they don't think they'll be able to find it out of all their parcels before they close, so have to wait until Monday. Never mind.
 
My watch has arrived in Manchester this morning! 3 miles away!

I can feel the taptic engine...

I thought the same as I am only 30 miles from Gloucester. Unfortunately I can't take delivery on Monday (but I could have called in while driving past on the M5) so they are insisting on sending it to Tewkesbury, and I will have to wait until Tuesday to pick it up.
