My bad you're right. But this thread has been mainly focused around the 42mm, sorry for the confusion.




Yeah, I think this thread was trying to convert to using PDT. So in general terms, I meant xx:12:01, or for EDT, 03:12:01.

You're fine, just clearing up the confusion as we are all (im)patiently waiting and getting inaccurate/bad info. I ordered 38mm at 4:30pm EST so I've been following their shipments pretty close and noticed the 10am shipment. Your estimation on the 42mm seems close from what I've read. Good luck.
 
The burners in processing hell Australia have been turned up:

WTF Apple!

My 42 SG BSB delivery ETA has been pushed out.

Went from 27/05 - 10/06 to 29/05 - 12/06

That's what you get when pre-ordering.
How stupid.

HULKSMASH!

Can you clarify "xx:08:32" for me? 8 hours and 32 minutes after preorders opened? (Approx. 11:23am EST)?
Just curious as to where they are with fulfilling 42mm SG BSB watch orders. My order was 4/11 at 3pm EST so I think that's.. xx:12:42?

I know he'll clarify it as well ;-) but I just felt like chiming in. The "xx" represents the launch time... followed by the number of minutes and seconds after the launch time, determined by when you received your order confirmation email. The only way to get the seconds is by calling or chatting with Apple Support -- they'll give it to you.

Can you convert my time for me? Haha! I've tried doing the math and I'm not sure. Confirmation: 4/11 at 3:42:37 PM EST.

Does that make it..xx:12:37?
(I'm awful at math and am most likely wrong)

No that's not it... again, it's the minutes:seconds after the launch -- you're coming up with 12 hours, so that's incorrect. For those of us who've ordered on 4/11 it just doesn't work for us to use this particular notation, because since we're about 24 hours past launch time, that's 1440 minutes, which you can't represent using MM:SS! Anyway, we will most likely see a much quicker pace of shipments once the 4/10 orders get fulfilled... meaning at that point we may just be able to compare notes by saying "4/11" or "4/12", etc.

Thank you! You rock. I couldn't comprehend why I couldn't convert my order to that format.
Cheers bud! Hopefully we'll be wearing our watches soon enough.

That's some good news!
Did you go with white or black band?

Sure I can clarify- xx:is the hour that preorder began just using the x for different time zones. I was in the 8 min preorder range and have been left behind as we are now into the 12 min or more minute range.
If you preordered at 3pm on 4/11 you missed the initial onslaught by a day, I think it started on 4/10 and 3am Eastern time

Went with the ever popular black band to match the space grey.

:apple::rolleyes:
 
WHEW

Well guys, almost botched my order. Less than 24 hours ago, the card I used to purchase my watch was automatically shut off because of fraud and a replacement card is being UPS'd to me today or early tomorrow...

Turns out after 6 weeks of patiently waiting (with another 2-3 until my window closes), Apple decided to fill my order, so my card was declined. Of course they push ahead on orders during my moment of weakness!

What a Jinx I am :confused: ;)

The good news I called good ol' Apple support and they were more than willing to help me out. So, looks like next week here we come :cool:
 
eBay Pre Orders

I purchased a preorder off eBay (internet was down at time of preorder, smh -__-), scheduled delivery from May 13 - May 27. It hasn't budged from "Processing Items" and May 13th is today. To my knowledge, many others have seen this changed to "preparing for shipment". Does anyone else have this situation?

Oh, no . . . so you paid an eBay premium price and getting delayed shipment?
Sorry :(
No sarcasm is intended (really) but I'm glad I ordered mine from Apple and wearing it as I type. I can understand why some feel the need to go the eBay route; it's just not for me.

It was just my circumstances. I would have bought it from Apple if I could have. And eBay premimum? I only paid $25 more than I would have at apple :)

Glad you didn't take my comment the wrong way. Some people, here, are overly sensitive so I try to watch what I say and how I say it.

Oh, okay that doesn't sound too bad. It beats paying a $100+ premium.
I'm sure you'll get your Apple Watch soon and will be very happy with it :cool:
 
I graduated

just took delivery of my SG 42mm watch. I ordered this 8 min into the preorder over a month ago and I can finally graduate from this thread, as it has consumed a lot of my time. I was close to canceling many times but so glad that I didn't! Hang in there guys it is so worth the wait!! Oh and it is working with full tattoos on either wrist too, I'm lucky :D

Charged!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

38mm SG BSB
ORDERED: 04/10/15 APPROX 5P PST
EST. DELIVERY: 05/21/15-06/04/15
CHARGED: TODAY!! in the AM :eek:
STATUS: PREPARING FOR DELIVERY :D

What's funny is that I ordered the green band around end of April and it had a deliver date between 05/14/15-05/28/15 and that is STILL processing!
 
Uh boy...with the news about how Apple dropped the ball regarding how easy it is for thieves to steal and reset the Apple Watch, I wonder if this is going to further delay us poor saps who have June and beyond delivery dates? I guess I'd rather have a more secure watch when I finally get it but the waiting is starting to get to me.
 
Oh crap...I'm afraid to check my account. I'm sure we're in the same boat.

----------

Finally have some movement on mine. Ordered +1 day, 4 hours after the site went live.

Looks like it's still a month and a bit away...

Really, that's utterly ridiculous without some sort of further explanation from Apple. You order one day after the watch sales go live (2 days for me) and you won't get your watch until the 4th of July. Cripes!!! I guess I should've just kept the 38mm I ordered. It came on the 27th.
 
Crap, I didn't order my 42mm SG until April 21. I'm not likely to get it in June at all if next day orders are estimated at the end of June...
