So what are the chances of us UK people getting our watches tomorrow if we were just charged? Do you know what the latest time can be for it to go to PFS/ shipped in order to receive it the next day?

My father in law got his sports grey one the next day and the charges were not done till 6.30 pm the day earlier.
 
Glad i'm not the only one who rang up to ask! The other day I rang the bank and admitted I was asking about an Apple Watch and the woman at the end of the phone told me at length how excited she was about getting a NutriBullet that she'd ordered. Clearly we all have our little obsessions!

I told them I was waiting for a new computer (little white lie) but I may as well have told the truth as the chap ended the call by saying 'enjoy your shiney new toy'!
 
New software release to celebrate :)

Thought I would share my transcript with you :)

...Welcome to Apple.
...What can we do for you today?

Hi just checking my order has been charged ok and when i can expect dispatch

...Now transferring you to an Apple Chat Specialist. Please wait.

...Now Chatting with Paul

...Hi! Thank you for contacting Apple, my name is Paul.

Hi Paul

Order Number: WXXXXXXXX

...Cool, I can certainly help you with this and check the payment/dispatch info for you here.

We have been waiting an age for these Space Black watches

Hopefully they can get sent out quickly :)

...Sorry to hear that you’re still waiting! I know how you must feel though, I can hardly wait to get my new Watch as well, I’ll just be a moment while I take a look at your order though.

ok thanks

...You’re very welcome and thanks for waiting but yes I’m delighted to say that the payment for your new Watch has indeed been authorised so you can expect it to be dispatched imminently.

...However there’s unfortunately no definite date/time for this as yet but you can still expect delivery between the tomorrow and 26th (at the latest).

Great! Thats a relief to hear. Hope it will be here before the weekend. We have a public holiday :)

on Monday

...Yes I’d hope so as well! But you can of course continue to check and track your order as well as the delivery online via the Order Status page.

...Or using the Apple Store app as well.

...And we’ll also send a notification email once it is on its way to you.

Thats great. Thank you for your help today Paul. Hope you get your watch soon!

...Me too! (Great choice by the way, I’m getting the same one but 38mm).

...You’re very welcome! Thank you for contacting Apple today.

...But feel free to chat again in the future and have a lovely evening! Bye.

Excellent! I think it will be amazing in the flesh

bye for now :)

...Definitely! I think so as well! Bye.

:apple:
 
Just checked, I have been charged for a 42mm Space Black Watch.

My order confirmation was '10 April 2015 at 08:05'. I'm still in the processing items stage.

It's happening!
 
Nothing for me yet, no charges (what I can see on HSBC) and still processing.... :mad:
My confirmation was Fri, 10 Apr 2015 08:03:36

Really pleased for you all....... But now even more frustrated that I'm still stuck processing! 42mm, 8.05, 12-26 May.
 
What time do you think this will change to dispatched then?

Never! Apple have just renamed "Processing Item" to say PFD to get us all excited and take our money, but won't actually send anything for at least 6 months. :p:p

On a serious note, I'm hoping soon. However I did notice that even those who were charged & went to PFD today at lunch time still haven't actually changed to Dispatched. So there is still hope.

Sounds like they are all going on a pallet waiting for collection
