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

Thunderhawks said:
Do we really need a front page story every time there is a fart about the Apple watch?

Summary to all:

Orders are being billed, prepared and shipped and whatever you ordered will get to you.

Sometimes sooner, sometimes later!

Eventually there will be enough watches for everybody who wants one.

Apple watch shipment threads = DONE!!

It's going to be able to fart too!!!!!! Awesome I need mine now!!!!!!!
 
Good luck to all who are having thier watches prepared for dispatch ! May you all get them on Friday
 
Seems more style based than locale

The two people I know who ordered the 42mm SG black sport watch are getting theirs Friday, as is the person I know who ordered both a 38mm and 42mm white band sport watch. I ordered the 42mm pink band sport watch at 3:06 and have not been charged yet.

Anyone with a pink band getting theirs Friday? I thought it would be good to order something different (have the white band on order separately which is due to ship in May).
 
I ordered a 42mm ss with black band and still no changed i ordered it at 3:03 in the morning and still have no change or charge has anyone had a change with the same band and watch as me?

MY Choice by UPS

Well, Balls... My watch is set for "preparing for shipment" (38mm White sport) . I've tried checking via reference number on UPS.com, but it's not coming up there. and MY Choice by UPS is useless to me, as I am having it shipped to my office, not the home.. UPS doesn't allow you to enter a commercial address as an alternate address.

*patiently waits for shipment*

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
 
When did the status change? Just wondering if there's any hope for more updates today.

Barclay VISA?

So I'm wondering if there is some kinda rhyme or reason as to who gets their card debited and who doesn't.

I have a Barclay - Apple Visa and no movement at all with a 4/24 delivery date. Maybe they will just do that companies cards all at once tomorrow?

Anyone else have the Barclay?

No, I ordered more than 1 on the same card and one shipped, one didn't. I think it's based on model/region and some level of random disorganization mixed in.
 
I ordered mine at...

I ordered mine at 3:02 am ET on April 10. The stainless steel space black 42 mm. It was 4-6 weeks delivery time already, what makes me think that that watch was not ready for prime time on launch day. There is noway it sold out in one minute.

Are we seeing a bunch more status updates at any particular time of day? (United States) I am soooo hoping some of the flights that arrived last night or that will arrive soon have the Space Gray Watches... I very much wanted to play around with it over the weekend.

Ordered: :apple: Space Gray Sport 42mm with Black Band
Status: Processing Items
Ordered: 2:01am CST (As soon as store went live)
Confirmation: 2:03am CST

"Preparing for shipment" is that status the means it's shipping. It's not going to change to shipped until at least tomorrow because it's all overnight shipping, and they don't want you to get it until Friday, so Thursday is the earliest it could possibly change to "shipped".

Yeah its very odd that practically _all_ of these have not been updated (SS black and Sport SG)... I sure hope there wasn't some manufacturing issue with the black watches. :(

If I don't get anything by tomorrow evening... I abandon all hope :p /s

You're joking right? My 4/24-5/8 order is still processing and people with a later delivery date are getting shipped? If I don't receive mine on Friday, bye bye Apple.

The ones getting theirs early could be a different model than yours. ;)
