38mm SS with sport band.
I was hoping it would take longer since I'll be trying on watches today and might want to switch to 42.
Ordered mine 11pm on a Wednesday night, received it by Friday. Less than 48 hours later.
I'd expect it tomorrow.
I went to Selfridges in London on Tuesday. The SS 38mm SB was the only model they had in stock. Anyone could walk in and out with one of them.

It's getting to the point where indecisive people like me need to be careful about ordering -- stuff is shipping so fast there's no time to cancel when you change your mind!

Quite possibly a stockpile from the initial production. I'd assume a lot of the lines are also tuned and cased for 38mm production, it can take awhile to convert lines to make larger watches. I'm not really sure why Apple might have put as much emphasis on 38 as they did, the fashion trends over the last 15 years has been larger watches. Quite frankly I'm surprised they didn't do 40/44mm as the split.
nice. I think blue might be one of the less popular bands from what I've read here.
All the 42s except for the Space Black Link are 2-3 weeks now, the SBLB is 5-6 weeks. Times are improving weekly. I imagine ordering a 42 with a 2-3 week might ship in a week to 10 days if not less.
