Another day, more processing hell. xx:04:59

While it's encouraging xx:05 and xx:06 are shipping, it's really frustrating the order Apple is going in.

Based off of everything in the forums, i assume that the shipping method that Apple is using goes based off of time as well as region. if they have enough stock going to a certain region, it would make sense to disperse those stock amongst the region, even though others are still waiting.
 
I wonder if we've hit the trickle in phase that explains later ship times. Last Friday and the weekend were huge delivery days and maybe now things will be slow for a while.
 
You mad bro? Lol hope you're kidding. I have no reason to lie. Just wanted to share my excitement.you can digital touch message me if you want proof lmao

Yeah, just joking around trying to lighten the mood and release some of this built up tension in here! I got charged and and got a shipping notification, so it's only a matter of time for me now. Happy for you getting your hands on one!
 
...and UPS 77 just left China. Yesterday this flight number ultimately ended in Ontario, CA. Does not mean various cargo is not redistributed in Anchorage though.
 
So far there is just 1 UPS plane that is in the air from Anchorage to Louisville. Due in at 9:01 AM EST.

It seemed like most of the charges were late last night when planes landed in Louisville. Is that correct?

I received the 38mm green watch yesterday. It said origin scan was Louisville.. But on the box, the label was Tennessee...

Is Apple's status changes done when a plane lands? The hub my watch would arrive to is Louisville, so when another plane lands in Louisville, is that when i should expect the possibility of a change or is it random?
 
No... It will do that from time to time especially if it has t been scanned as picked up yet.
Okay I have a small concern:

Yesterday around 8pm I got my tracking number and apple order page changed to Shipped. Apple also sent me an email last night saying "Order Shipped, delivers Tuesday April 28th." However, today my tracking number still shows "order processed, Ready for ups". According to UPS, the order hasn't moved yet. Should I be concerned about receiving my watch tomorrow?
 
Thank you.

Orig scan is Louisville since that is ups main air hub.

Louisville is in Tennessee...

I was charged 11 hours ago, about the times that the planes landed in Louisville. Still no update on Apple regarding status. Is there still a chance my watch was on one of those planes?

Louisville is in Kentucky! I'm in Southern Indiana. About 5 miles from Louisville .

It seems that many of the watches delivered Friday/Saturday were assembled in week 14/15.

If as you speculate we've hit the point of what gets built gets delivered, it will be slow for the rest of the :04-06's.

It's a bit anticlimactic once you get it. Why? It's a watch and it does some things but not many. Also it's a bit confusing.
