Why do people post that Apple Support UK twitter? It's not affiliated with Apple Support in any way. They're basing this all on speculation as much as we are.

Fake. Apple does absolutely no customer support over social media. Those people are just spreading misinformation.

Not sure how much you can believe those low level support people. There are several 3:03 space gray orders that have already been shipped.
Let's just look at the facts here.
Labels that have been created are dated for tomorrow (4/23) with overnight shipping. That means if our watches are coming to the US today or tomorrow it is still completely possible we will get them for a Friday delivery.
People seem to forget that supply chain is one of Tim Cook's specialties.

Couple this with the fact that a few people who have the 4-6 week delivery window for the 42mm SG are already seeing "preparing for shipment," and I think we should see updates very soon. It would be complete BS if those with later delivery windows got their watches before those with 4/24-5/8. I'm putting my faith in Apple on this one.
Seems real. Haven't read through the whole thread though.

I received mine but it took a minute or two so I'm not sure the exact time I ordered. Does anyone know if there is a way to find out? Thanks.

Perhaps your email went into your Junk folder or you have a different email on file with Apple?
Just as I was deciding May was looking pretty likely for my 38mm SG, I have to read this and get all hopeful again. Damn you
!15+ years ago I used to get like this when it came to new DVD's coming out. I need therapy.
therapy! 
Nope. Only Fedex and USPS. And FedEx requires a Saturday delivery extra shipping charge.

It's ok. We all do
Not true. I worked for UPS for years. They offer a premium Saturday delivery option as well
Hm, take that with some salt right? It's not an official Apple account but it claims to have Apple employees using it. Some 42mm SG Sports have already shipped iirc.
I stand corrected. But regardless Apple is not upgrading our watches to Saturday delivery. If you don't get it Friday, next chance is Monday.
Oh that we can agree on. My shipment is a next day air saver, which is the cheapest overnight option ups offers. No morning delivery, no Saturday delivery.
Man Space Gray must be in short supply... I feel like having it available with just the black band hurts us too
How do you know this? I do know that Saturday delivery isn't available in all areas because I had this issue with an iPad that Apple shipped with Saturday delivery.

Apple may choose Saturday delivery if they ship watches on Friday.
