After seeing this thread yesterday has placed an order for 38mm blue band. Got just charged. Processing items still.
 
Just wanted to mention that I decided to try this too. Ordered 38mm Blue Sport at 8:28pm EDT on Thursday 4/23. Curious to see if it can beat my 38mm SG Sport which is in Processing Purgatory. Ordered mainly because I had no idea when the SG's will ship en masse, and wasn't sure which case "flavor" I would actually like better. Figure if I get the Blue and still have no update on the SG, I can just keep the Blue. I'm also just plain curious to see which ships first. But no movement on either just yet.
 
I placed an order as well. Confirmation email was 1:35pm EST. No charge. No status change. :(

Just after I clicked submit, guess what? PREPARING FOR SHIPMENT!!!!

No charge on my credit card yet and no tracking number (still says June).

I so need to get a life...
 
Can confirm blue 38mm sport ordered yesterday has just been charged and prepared to ship. Seems they are doing it in rolling order
 
Ordered the 38 blue yesterday evening 8pm (Europe time zone) let's see if we see some movement today. My SS 42 mm Classic buckle ordered 4/10 still in processing......

I ordered a blue sport band Sport Watch yesterday and just saw the charge hit my credit card. This one's a gift (the one for me is arriving today).
 
See, if Apple told us which they made 'too much' of, we could have all had ours today.

Still says shipping in June. Kinda wish they would update that already.
 
Preparing for shipment!

Ordered the 38mm Sport Watch with Blue Band yesterday (4/23) around 2pm and my card was just charged and says preparing for shipment! Never thought I would be so happy for my credit card to be charged!
 
Interesting to know, but I'm going to buy the variant I don't really care for just to have it a few days earlier.
 
OK OK I ordered the blue for my wife after seeing this last night, still no movement as of yet, it better hurry before I change my mind:)
 
What time you guys ordered the blue yesterday?? I've ordered the 38 mm at 9pm (confirmation mail) for tho moment nothing....
 
Annoying. They changed my status to preparing for shipment, but didn't charge my credit card yet and the ship date still says June.

How long does it usually take to go from preparing to actual shipping?
