I can beat that: Mine also supposedly delivered between Oct 12-19 has actually shipped and shows in UPS tracking as delivery either today (!) - don't believe that - or Monday (possibly). Nice surprise. The XS arrives today...
Got a tip for us?

Pre-ordered the 44mm Aluminium Space Grey Series 4 with Sport Loop
I was only able to get on the website at 3:15 EST
Received my confirmation email at 3:16
My delivery window, per Apple Store, is Oct. 2nd - Oct. 10th
When I woke up this morning, I checked and it said my watch had shipped, so I looked at the tracking with UPS and it said it is scheduled for Delivery today, by end of day! The Apple Store App still says Oct. 2nd-10th, though.
My last scans are in Suzhou at 12:03 (Shipped) and then at 14:16 (In Transit). I'm still not sure it is feasible for the watch to make its way from China to the East Coast of Canada, and to my place, today... Given I was expecting delivery early October, I'll take even Monday with glee.

Mine says shipped, and to be delivered today. My ship date was 10/28-10/2 for the SB SS 40 mm.
Stone sport band

Anyone else pre-order through AT&T? I ordered a 44mm GPS+Cell stainless steel with sport band and I have a shipping date of November 9th - November 23rd. I was able to order in a store at 8am on the east coast.
They're out of stock on AT&T's website, but I was wondering if anyone else had theirs back ordered as far back as mine? Thanks! Enjoy your new devices today, folks!

Weird tracking showing for my originally Oct 2-5 estimate. Shows at end of day today on the tracker which makes zero sense to me considering how long it took my iPhone Xs MAX to end up in Dallas (should be delivered today!). Guessing that it is Monday or Tuesday at this point, but that's a HUGE improvement!
For any Ontario, Canada orders I just had an update for departure scan from Mount Hope, but back dated to 7:55am EST.
What exactly says delivery today?
My SB SS 44mm order was also given 9/28 - 10/2, and this morning I got the surprise update like a lot of folks that UPS tracking claims it will be delivered today. However, Apple.com was updated to say the parcel will arrive Thursday September 27, which seems much more likely than today.
My Gold SS 40mm was given 9/25-9/27 and it has now shipped. My Choice UPS is showing a delivery date of the 25th, and the regular tracking shows a scheduled delivery of the 21st (today). Sound like this is a glitch!

Also have similar experience to those above.
40mm Silver Aluminum Cellular with white sport band. Ordered at around 8:30am CDT on 9/14/18. Original ship date was Oct 5-12. Got shipment notification last night.
UPS website says delivery by "end of day today 9/21/18", UPS My Choice website says "Monday 9/24/18 by end of day", Apple website says "Delivery on Wednesday 9/27/18". Anyone wanna place bets on which estimate is correct? ha.
Last scan was in China at 2:55pm which is 1:55am CDT. I don't think there's a chance the thing gets here today, but Monday is feasible, and would be a huge uptick over the 10/5 - 10/12 estimate. Thank you Apple and UPS.

That’s exactly what happened to me. My watch is suppose to come mid October. Woke up today and it says shipped. Apple still shows the original delivery window. If I click on my tracking it shows scheduled delivery for today. If I log into UPS My Choice it says Monday (tentative.) Who knows what to believe.
The funny part is I’m currently 3rd in line at the Apple Store to see if I can get one today. Seems silly now that my shipping changed but I’m already here.
Well finally some good news for me. my watch also just got shipped out.
Ordered Friday 14th @ 9:18 (So 18 minutes after pre orders started i was finally able to place my order)
What: Apple watch series 4 aluminum 44 mm space gray with black sports band (not loop like i wanted originally)
Original delivery: Oct 2 - Oct 5 (slipped on the last seconds while i had to wait for payment to be accepted)
Wanted to drive to a reseller today and try and find a watch in store, but Apple didn't want me to so during the night they bumped my processing status to prepairing for shipment. So i could not cancel my order anymore
Luckily the status just switched to shipped and my new delivery day is Wednesday 26th.
Oh and its coming directly out of Suzhou, China again, so its not left over stock already here in the Netherlands.
Well i would have liked to score one at a store today, but will continue the wait now to Wednesday. That way Ali Express also has some time to deliver my new bands i ordered for this watch

I love this feature. When I ordered my 2018 MacBook Pro, I was able to see it come to my home almost in realtime! Mine is still not flagged as "out for delivery", but I'm hoping to get a better idea of when it will arrive at my home when it does.
First time I've seen this tracking feature on UPS.....
