Series 4 Pre-order thread

Got my pre-order placed 12:06am! 44mm Space Gray Aluminum GPS with Apple Care. Can't wait to finally upgrade my S0 next week 😀
 
Ordered my watch with Best buy and they say it's ship only. I had figured to walk in to pick it up like last year. Oh well. Excited.
 
Apple Pay on iPad Pro failed me it would not let me change to my credit card it wanted to use Apple Pay cash only. Switched to iPhone X and got 44mm space gray gps. Delivery by 9/21.
 
Black SS 44mm ordered with Milanese Loop...excited (more so than for my XS MAX)...

The availability seemed to slip much quicker on the watches than i expected. Must be a big upgrade year on these (or limited stock...)

Noticed the same thing, so I'm doing something unprecedented for me: preordering elsewhere. Best Buy had the SS black 44mm for launch day delivery, so that's the route I went. We'll see how well that pays off.
 
GPS 40mm Space Grey Aluminium with Black Sport Loop, store came up about 6 minutes past on the app, went though as quick as I could but was undecided on the Band or Loop, thought I’d try the Loop this time as I have a couple of other straps if I don’t like it, delivered on the 21st.
 
Ordered a 40mm SS GPS+LTE. Delivery 10/5 - 10/12. I was shooting for 9/28 as I’m out of the country until then, but hey, that’s not too bad. Traded in my S3 Aluminum for a $225 refund.

I wish they gave the choice for bands though. I’m not a big fan of the sport bands in general, and the white in particular.

Placed individual order for each: S4 gold SS 40 with stone band; iPXs gold 64gb; iPXs silver 64gb.

iPX Apple Store App was a little flaky or pages too sensitive as flipped back on me a couple times, had to start over twice. Changed shipping address to get silver delivered to daughter.

Took total 7 minutes, longest preorder time ever, all deliveries confirmed US by 9/21.

Went in later for Hermes Bordeaux/Rose Double tour, 0ct 5-12 delivery.

I'm so tired from staying up this damn late that I accidentally confirmed shipping to my old address. Oh what joy.

How the hell do i change this since i'm "outside their business hours" and see no option.

Order two gold stainless 40 mm watches, one directly from Apple and the other from AT&T. Got 9/21 on both orders, but I'm not certain about the AT&T order, as the payment screen took a bit of time to load.
 
Order S4 Silver SS 44 with sport band from Apple. Got a 10/5 delivery date. No SS at Verizon. Best Buy shows Silver SS as out of stock.
 
I just called Verizon to ask if they were going to get the stainless steel versions of the watches and they said no, what they have is what they’re getting and what they will be offering... So I guess only option for any of us looking to get the watches will be to go through Apple or Best Buy or whatever…

Folks who pre ordered before and had a far away date, doesn't Apple usually beat those dates, or is that usually accurate?

It happens, but just to a small percentage. I’m guessing cancellations and failed payment processing lead to some release day units being reallocated to others.
