I think the green 38mm stopped being quick about two hours before I ordered one on Monday. (1PM Mountain Time.) I feel like a cat chasing a laser light...every time I think I've caught it, it moves...

Ah gotcha...whats strange is I cancelled my 42mm White Sport (decided I wanted the smaller one based on my wrist and preference) and ordered the 38mm blue (since blue and green bands are showing 2-4 weeks shipping sold separately hoping that could play a role :) ) and my order now is still showing "we've received your order"....not even a processing status ugh!

LOL...I ordered a 42mm White Sport last night in case I decide the 38mm GSB is too small. Maybe I'll get yours! :)
 
Ordered 42 Blue on 4/23...

Shipped today and will receive it tomorrow.

Ordered a White & Green 42 earlier that day and they are both still processing.
 
Thanks! More stuff to obsess about.. Seriously though, Apple, SHIP my watch!:apple:
My question is, has it been clearly established that there is a correlation between plane landings and shipping notices? Anything I've bought in the past seems to involve a shipping notice that originates in China...or are they bulk shipping them to distribution centers who then fulfill the orders? Apologies if I've missed this in another thread...

There does seem to be a correlation between shipping charges after a couple hours of landing

Also, with the recent news of the defective haptic feedback, it is interesting to note that a few of the flights originate from Japan...

"Apple was unable to use the Taptic Engines from the supplier in Shenzhen, China, but a those produced by a second supplier in Japan did not have the same issue."
 
I also admit that that honestly, I probably should have gotten the silver at pre-order - it just looks better with all of the bands (especially the Milanese, which I want).

This is exactly why I cancelled my Space Grey/Black Sport and ordered the Silver/Green instead. I started thinking about switching out different bands, and didn't think the SG case would look all that great with colors other than black, or the Milanese loop, which I want eventually. I ordered the 38 Green on Monday and it got here today, so greens are definitely moving quick.

I think it depends on the watch, at least for those of us in the US. My 38 green sport originated in Ontario, CA (I'm in AZ). I think there's still a ton of 38 blues and greens sitting in US warehouses, which is why they're moving right away. The ones coming directly from China are most likely the models that are now out of stock in the US warehouses, so they come straight from the manufacturer.

I remember the same thing happened with the iPhone 6's...a ton of people had shipments that originated in the US, and then the next wave of people watched them come in from China...

I've had no movement on my green sport watch too. It's so frustrating! I am really hoping to see my status change tonight.
 
I ordered a 38mm SS with Classic buckle yesterday and it shipped today :eek:

I'm in the same boat as you... but I even have a 42mm from 4/10 that is still processing... my 38mm Green and 38mm White I ordered on Monday will never come.

I don't know how everyone is getting movement from ordering earlier this week. This is such BS! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Saw your post last night and decided to place and order for this model. Honestly, I'm not tied to a particular band, but I wanted the SS face. Figure I can get a different band in the future. Ordered confirmation was 8:51 PM PST on 4/29/15. I just checked this morning and it is preparing for shipment.

Maybe I have hope for today! I ordered early this morning a SS 38 mm wsb (est of June 3-16)...maybe it will go to shipping soon :) Fingers crossed (i cancelled my blue sport...decided a) ss 38mm is only one showing 4-6 weeks instead of just June and i'd prefer the ss due to the saphire screen so i figured why not!
