My SS 40mm had a date of Oct 2-5, now shows "Preparing to Ship" on Apple's order site! Might get it sometime next week! Exciting.
You actually might get it tomorrow. It might already be in the states, and just needs 1 day overnight delivery

Not that I would panic over this but mine is still in Nashville according to UPS but both sites still say delivery tomorrow. Not giving up hope yet as I have faith (and I believe that scans don’t show as frequently coming from US to Canada as I’ve seen it before) in UPS.

If I get it Monday so be it. Even if it comes tomorrow we’re heading north for the weekend and WiFi opportunities are limited at best so I probably could not even get it set up tomorrow if I had it.

It’s arrived and looks/feels amazing.

The haptic feedback for the crown is pretty meh. It feels like it’s just tapping my wrist not my finger.

I think one of the reasons I like the Hermes models is because the watch is so ordinary available in Aluminium and non cellular versions.

I like the feeling (as pretentious as it sounds) of being more exclusive.

Excellent news. Did you get any sort of notification when the status changed or were you just checking it every 30 seconds like I’ve been doing?

Wife has off work tonight so I won’t even have a chance to check on it once we take off for the grocery store but as of right now, my SBSS 44 with a ship window of 10/5 - 10/12 is still showing as “Processing”.

Maybe I’ll have a nice surprise when I wake up tomorrow.

No notification or anything. Just happened to check my bank account balance and happened to notice a large amount of money come out and new instantly what it was lol. A quick trip to the Apple Store app verified it!

I'm picking up two watches tomorrow at the same store, but my appointment times are 1.5 hours apart. Do you think I will be able to pick up both at the earlier appt? I know that the store employees will be working hard tomorrow, I don't want to be obnoxious. I can go grab a coffee or something in between, no big deal. What do you think?

Mine is suppose to ship 9/29-10/2. They charged me today, and it says preparing to ship. Do you think I will get it before next friday?

Likely.

I'm sure they'll let you pick up both at the same time since your two appointments are close to one another. But just play it nice, since it's gonna be hectic tomorrow. Plus, it'd be more efficient to get both at the same time lol

SS SB 44mm here, originally quoted 9/29-10/2 delivery. Card has now been charged, status is Preparing to Ship. Nothing in UPS when I use the order number trick.

You might actually get it on Friday they usually charge you when it’s shipped which usually only takes a day or two.
[doublepost=1537485453][/doublepost]Have aluminium apple watches always shipped with the shorter cable? I’m coming from an older gen SS version and had the 2m cable. But this gen has the shorter one.
