If I order a nike watch using the app and pay with apple pay does it only take the money when they are dispatched? Do I need the full money in my account now?

They make a pre authorisation of a small amount at time of order to check the card is valid then charge full amount on despatch.

Thanks. Would like the nike but if I could get the aluminum by next weekend instead that would be good. No money until Thursday. Just bought an iPhone.
 
Damn. So there's no chance of me going anywhere today to get a series2 gold on concrete and an aluminium on woven? My closest stores are Milton Keynes, Watford, Cambridge but could travel into London.

Anybody been in store and know if any have stock?

Cheers in advance

Apples website now lets you check store availability for the watches.

Did anyone manage to walk into an Apple Store and get one? All stores between Manchester and Newcastle were listed as "Unavailable for Collection" which combined with the iPhone 7 availability issues possibly makes this the worst Apple launch yet....
 
SS with black sports band showing as available for pickup at Convent Garden and Selfridges and so are quite a few 38mm sports watches.

Placed my order a few days ago (Nike) and I've just checked credit card online and someone has made a £1 charge (pending) against my card. I'm assuming it's Apple! Just hope they hurry up and send it now!
 
Available for pickup from the Apple Store in Covent Garden. Just reserved a SS black sport band (42mm) and it is already available.
 
Been keeping an eye out for Cardiff stock online and nothing so glad you've confirmed in store stock, saves me a trip in. Thanks.


Sorry not been down just spoken to the call centre and whats on the web is whats in store they say, its 2 hours from me so not going with out a garantee

You can pay online and as soon as it says "ready for pickup" it is in the store with a sticker on it for your name - i.e. guaranteed. :)
 
You think


Did they say they are replenishing stock daily for walk ins?
They have no idea of stock and suggested it will be weeks before the series 2 will be available, I suspect glad few will turn up here and there but a LOT of people were ordering for delivery so the back order list is getting longer and longer, it will be November now before this is easley available, I have ordered online nownmy self with 18-31 oct estimate
 
You guys are lucky. Ordered mine 608am yesterday morning to collect from Selfridges London saturday (today)
Went up to London hour on the. Train an all day showing as processing. Went to store an they couldn't help still showing processing now not impressed
 
I wonder what the problem with stock was. Surely Apple know how many have been produced and how many each retailer has been offered?!?
 
After the Argos saga earlier in the week mine was finally delivered by Yodel yesterday to my neigbour who's just brought it round .... 42 Aluminium SG with sport band.

Does anyone by chance know if you can add AppleCare to a watch without going in store ? (I know you have to take phones in person)

Cheers
 
Just done an early roundup and no stock in all the regular places in the UK (online) - I think Apple have really kept stock to themselves this year. If there was a problem with the number of units available surely Apple know a launch is coming up and demand will be high!!!
