Managed to grab 2 watches from Milton Keynes yesterday after refreshing the page every 10 mins at work. 38mm aluminium white strap and 42mm aluminium space grey. Very busy in there when I collected them had to wait a long time.
 
My order from Apple has changed to 'Preparing for Dispatch' but the delivery estimate still says 3 Oct - 7 Oct.

Just an update on mine, it's out for delivery today! The UPS tracking is delayed by a few hours though, it's been out for delivery since 08:05 but only now the tracking shows this.

Mine arrived at about 9:15 this morning, thought the UPS man was gonna bash the front door in? Lol

Can't set it up as I don't get the iPhone until tonight, but stuck on my £12 Milanese loop Amazon special and it looks pretty nice!

Very impressed, couldn't tell you the difference between it and the apple one I tried on in store the other day.

I bought a third party Milanese loop as well. The £8.95 JETech one on Amazon, very happy overall! I like the look. https://imgur.com/a/qQvGO

I've had news too! Curry's have finally confirmed cancellation for the missing watch and John Lewis have emailed to say the watch is ready for collection! Result at last!
Little update for you on Currys - went in the shop this afternoon to cancel my order (I ordered it in person not online), they never actually had any of the 42mm silver/whites anyway! So a good job we've sorted it out through other sources.
 
I have just received this email from Currys:

"It has been brought to my attention that there will be a delay in the delivery of your order. We are unable to tell when we may get any more stock of this product, as our system isn’t showing a due in date

As soon as we receive stock we will dispatch your item.

If you do not wish to wait please give us a call on 0344 561 1234, we would be happy to issue a full refund

May I take this opportunity to apologise wholeheartedly for any inconvenience caused?"

That's shocking! They happily take the money, go through the pretense of sending them out and we then have to chase our money back! Would never use them again. Good old JL have come through though and didn't have to wait too long!

cancel and order via John Lewis or Apple - both are getting plenty of stock in now. Few of us have suffered with Curry's over this. Never again!
 
Wow watch arrived this morning!

From Korea to me in less than 24 hours, I'm very impressed!

Castle Donington misspelled there, I note. Does anyone ever get that right?

Always seen it spelt incorrectly on UPS tracking. But I think that's manually been typed. There is also no such place as Atterbury (at least not where it was delivered) - It's Milton Keynes
 
That's encouraging to see, I've been tracking mine which apparently will be delivered tomorrow and it reads exactly the same as yours only 24hrs later, currently in Koeln Germany!

Once it gets into Europe, it's faster to get to the UK. So don't worry, it should be out for delivery tomorrow.

In the same boat! Can't wait!

Glad your sorted


Anyone had a 38mm rose gold Aluminium at all anywhere as I'm hunting for the wife now

It appears it's space grey mostly available.

I got exact same message. So surprised with these delays
 
My SS Series 2 WSB originally dated for 30/09 has just gone Preparing for Dispatch with Apple. How long is it taking on average from Dispatched to being delivered?
 
I don't get it. I ordered my SS S2 after my iphone on the way 9th and it arrived the following Friday.

No delays no complications... Am I reading this thread incorrectly and you ordered the same time as me and get it 2 weeks later?

I also had an email from apple saying S2 is now available which is odd again as I got it on the 16th.

Right now I am trying to track down a Hermes as I want something a bit more special.
