Some Apple Watch Pre-Orders With 4-6 Weeks or June Delivery Estimates Already 'Preparing for Shipment'

I think the SG watches aren't shipping yet since it was more of the popular model. Im still waiting for my SG mid-may to be charged. Then again, thinking about canceling and going for a 2nd Gen.

They probably will be adding a camera for FaceTime on the next :apple:Watch

This would be TOTALLY wrong if people with June ship dates get theirs before those of us who were up in the wee hours of the morning to preorder.

Entitled much? I hate to break it you, amigo, but many of us with May and June shipping dates were also up in the "wee hours" of the morning. My order for a SS SB link went thru at :05 and I got a June delivery date.

How is he entitled if you he ordered before you? If he has an earlier shipping date then he should receive his watch before you.

Yes, I understand that, did you read the article? 4-6 week delivery and June delivery orders are preparing for shipment. They need to fill the 4/24-5/8 orders before the LATER orders.

I agree, but it may depend on the watch ordered and its availability.

I agree as well. However, I ordered a SS black sport band and so did my friend. I ordered mine earlier and he has a "Prepairing for shipment" already. We both live in southern California. How does one explain that?
 
I live in CA, and have noticed no one has gotten a UPS tracking update, I wonder if FedEx is handling those and I have not been able to manually change the shipping date to the 23rd like I can with UPS. Could this be the reason know Tracking updates in CA?
 
Everybody needs to relax until Friday comes and they don't have their watch.

My iPhone 6 processing status didn't change until the day before release date. It didn't show shipped until midnight, but I still received it on launch day.

Plus, nothing guaranteed a launch day delivery.

Curious, same size & band color?
 
Model Availability is King. Tim is a Cook.

I'm in the same boat; I ordered a stainless-steel w/Milanese loop at 3:02am EDT, and still see "Processing Items" on my order. My card hasn't been hit for the charge yet either.

From what I read in this article though, my card won't get hit until they ship, and I'm assuming that the watch will ship tomorrow... so...

Tim just serves up what he has the ingredients for.

Dude. Add and update at ordertracker.me They have every band / combo with people updating their status' to show people further down the line what's up. More of us that do it the less frustrating this will probably be as almost everything still will be determined by model availability.

Why not wait and see what arrives on Friday instead of griping about what is shown online ? :)

Can't explain it, but I think it makes it likely that you will get your watch on Friday too. Wishing you luck!
 
I have two pending orders: a stainless 42mm Apple Watch with a black sport band for me, and a 38 mm aluminum Apple Watch Sport with blue band for my son. Both had delivery estimates of 4/24 to 5/8 when I ordered them at 2:03 am CDT on April 10.

My son's watch has shown "preparing to ship" for the past two days, but I have not received any notice of shipment. My Apple Watch still shows "Processing item".

To be fair, I was up in the wee hours and have a June delivery on my SS Space Black

oh my goodness if my 42mm SS w/ milanese that has a June processing status changes to preparing I am going to throw a party

Good luck ordered mine at 12:02am (PST), received email confirmation at 12:04:01am. 42mm SS Milanese Loop, card still not charged, no status update.

FYI. My wife and daughter both ordered the 42mm SS with classic buckle after I ordered my watch and both of them have been charged and their orders show as preparing to ship. And out UPS account shows two packages being delivered on 4/24, even though there is no additional information on either of the tracking numbers.
