Mine is shipped and out for delivery, but I still don't see a CC charge
Here's hoping you get a free watch. But don't hold your breath.
Preparing For Shipment
I ordered the 38mm with a confirmation email at xx:06 and was charged at about 5am EDT this morning (May 1st). As of around 12:30pm EDT my order is "Preparing for Shipment" to Philadelphia. Hopefully it ships soon and is overnighted as some have suggested it might be. I'm hoping for either a Saturday or Monday delivery, but that might be optimistic.

Inching along ever so slowly. Into the 05:40s now. This kinda verifies that we're now receiving watches as they're made.
Interesting, wonder how that'll impact my mornings order for the 42 milanese. The email still states in June, so I guess this guarantees that I won't get it in early/mid June, and I should look forward to a late June.
If you ordered a 42 this morning and were quoted a June delivery, you've got to be teetering on the cusp of the July cycle. Put it this way: I ordered my 42 on 4/12 and I'm still stuck in 'June delivery purgatory'. Unless things really start to move in the next week or so, I don't expect to wear my watch before the 15th of June at the earliest.
It's gotta speed up at some point. Over a week to just start fulfilling the orders that were placed in the 6th minute is crazy.
And keep in mind there are some of us in the 05 range still in processing limbo.

I don't see how it could be possible not to get it next week but at this point I'm not holding my breath anymore.
I was charged about 3p PT yesterday 4/30 and went from processing to preparing to ship around 8a on 5/1. There was no notification via email. Still waiting on tracking information.
I know when I ordered the IPhone last September, it was around 7pm est on the first preorder day... I was told it would 4-6 weeks. I got it 13 days after launch.
I'm :16 for the watch and I don't think I'll receive the watch faster (like with the iPhone)..
It's been a crazy slow process.

That's what I'm hoping for and also keep saying. There's no possible way this amount of lag can continue on orders if they're realistically going to deliver by June (not to mention retail)...at the actual rate they're going (I'm a dork and did some generic math...a week every 5 mins of orders) it would be well into the 2nd generation before orders would be completed for the first week of pre-orders haha. Obviously the heaviest orders happened within the first few hours so that math doesn't completely hold up but I think you get the point.
Once they figure out the manufacturing process that seems to be held up I'm sure we'll be seeing them rapidly pick up pace. That may realistically be in June though. I can't imagine if they're THIS backed up that in a couple of weeks they'll have magically caught up.
Guys I know how frustrated we all are right now. All week, I have been antsy and stressed out. As a xx:08 I have now come to accept that my watch will not be here in the next few days. Just know that all of us are being frustrated over a device that only a fraction of the world has, and we will have within a 2months (for all of the late June people) and shortly we will be able to look down at our wrists and smile. Don't let the stress get to your head. Not worth it!
I'm a xx.06.20. Hoping to see some action in the next day or two. No more flights coming into Louisville until tonight. Right now flights are coming from China into anchoridge, where they will then be sent to Louisville. Dissapointed at last nights bunch, not much. Hoping tonight's the night
Couldn't have said it better myself! It's funny, when you're on here it seems like there's a ton of watches out there and we're wondering where OURS are...but the reality is 75% of people who want and have actually ordered a watch haven't received theirs yet either.
