BUT Charged a few hours ago!

Another well after me?

----------

So I have an interesting observation to make regarding when people are seeing charges on their credit cards and when watches are shipped out.

Its currently thursday 4:40PM in the afternoon in china, I wonder if the charges people are seeing are as a result of shipments leaving the factory at this hour. Doesn't UPS usually do pick ups around that time?

Exactly. The first you see of the charge is when it keaves the factory.

Oddly here in Canada the pending charge does not seem to go through until the day of delivery. We have had 3 delivered to our house so far, just not the SG.
 
So it's taken a week to get through 5 minutes worth of orders placed for this SKU. They must have sold a ton of them.
 
For those of us charged this morning and preparing for shipment, Do yall think we will get our watches tomorrow or Monday?
I got "Preparing for Shipment" sometime after 10am Tuesday and it arrived Wednesday. So I'd say there's a good chance you get it tomorrow.
 
i ordered a 42 SG sport yesterday and looking at some of the recent activity on here it appears i'll likely receive this one before i could receive the space black SS with link that i ordered within 8 minutes on launch day. i honestly hope the sports ships before my SS i'm so put-off by apple making those to order instead of having stock on hand for launch that i want to cancel it and save $700+/- just out of being upset at the fumbled launch.

Ordered at XX:05 am Space Grey Black Sports Band
to Florida
Original Shipping of May 13-27:)
 
The thing I'm most happy about is that it sounds like any taptic engine issues were sorted out long before this new batch was even manufactured. I'm glad Apple caught this before it became a gate this time.
 
Man, this is painful. Seeing how close people's orders are to my xx:05:55. At this point my last and final prayer would be to get it charged/shipped tonight/tomorrow for a Saturday delivery. I fly out Sunday so I don't know what to do to prevent UPS from returning it cause I can't pick it up till the following Friday.

Sadly, I'm praying that if I don't get it Saturday I'l spend the next week with you guys praying that they DON'T ship it lol.
 
so is it safe to say the next wave is the delivery window for May 29th - June 11th? Looks like all of the May 13th - 27th are shipping this week.
 
Any 04s still out there, or is it safe to assume we are on the 05s? I got my email confirmation at XX:16 (yes 16 not 06 I know it sucks) so I'm hoping it arrives in at least the stated May 13 - 27 window but I don't like how slow this is going.
 
I might not be home tomorrow when they arrive. I left a presigned signature on the door. Will they just leave the package there or will they take it back and send it to Apple.

In my experience, they will leave the package where you indicated on the pre-sign form.
