This thread has gone from ten pages a day to less than one. Is this because most people on the site ordered in the first 12 minutes and have their watches now? It would be interesting to see how many are still waiting versus the massive amount that pre ordered immediately. You would think if they have delivered a majority of the watches that were ordered within the first 15 minutes it shouldn't take ANOTHER MONTH for those of us who ordered on 4/11. Ugh. Come on Apple.
 
Charged on 5-17 and Showing as preparing for shipment as of 6:30 am PST 5-18.

I'm in the 4/11 boat too..I think the majority of people have just given up beating a dead horse. We're all unhappy that we're willing to spend $400+ on a product and Apple is tip toeing around fulfilling orders.
I've officially reached the "acceptance" stage of grieving. I know it'll be here eventually.
Doesn't stop me from refreshing my order page a million times a day though.

I'm still waiting...ordered 42mm SG on the 29th of April.
 
Big Surge

There seems to have been another big surge today. It looks like we're into the xx:17s now. Five more flights on the way. I'm in the early xx:18s, so I'm crossing my fingers that I'll get a shipping notification in the next day or two. Keep the faith, people! It appears as though Apple is doing what they can to get these things pushed out as quickly as possible.

What model did you order and what did your initial ship date (or month) say?

Just curious.

Right here with you! I'm kinda tired of seeing all these 38's talking about getting their watches shipped already. I'm pretty sure 90% of he people waiting are people who are waiting for the 42's. At least in this thread.

I'm actually just waiting to see when we get pasted that first half hour... I think once we pass that point things will pick up rather quickly.

I got the 42mm Space Gray. 5/13–5/23 delivery estimate.

----------

I've seen several people refer to incoming flights. How do we know these flights are transporting watches? Is this an assumption because of the origin and destination?

I don't think there's really any way of knowing what's on the planes, but some people who are smarter than me have figured out which flights are carrying Apple products.

Mine has just changed from 'June' too '5-6 weeks' estimated for '22 June - 29th'. I ordered it on the 30th April. Don't know if this information will be useful to anyone. I'm in the UK and it's a 42 space grey sport. Anyone have any information on weather it will get here early? I was hoping to have it too take on holiday but I leave Saturday so doubt that, lol! Not too bothered, I ordered late. :)
 
denver just shipped

42 space gray
4/10
xx:15
It went from processing to PFS, to shipped w/tracking number. in the last 4 hours!!:eek::)

Been lurking for weeks, but wanted to share this news.. thanks to all for the info and the laughs.. your time will come!!
 
Still waiting as well. 42mm SG BSB, 11:10 a.m. 4/10. Still stuck on "processing" with delivery estimate of 5/29 - 6/11.

Same shipping estimate here but I ordered at 5:30am eastern. I'm curious to see how far apart our watches actually wind up being delivered. I'm thinking there was a big rush at 3am eastern (midnight pacific time) on 4/10 that lasted about 15 minutes then a steady trickle of orders and once Apple finishes the initial rush our delivery estimates will start to improve (slightly).

Same boat. Ordered at 7:48.22 PST on 4/10. I hope that the wave doesn't stop and they just keep shipping out the watches. Which won't happen hahaha
 
I ordered my watch (42mm space grey) on 12th April. I decided to wait until I'd tried it on - I'm glad I did, i was dead set on the 38mm before my appointment, so I would have been in the same place in line anyway.

My shipping estimate changed the oher day, to 6/18 to 6/26. I'm in China (Shenzhen in fact) - does the fact mine is a few days earlier than everyone in the US mean it takes 72 hours to get to the US, process and ship out to you?

Hi
42 mm Apple Sport Space Gray with Black Sport Band
Ordered April 29th.
First info: Ship in June.
Info May 18th morning: Delivers June 22-29
Info May 18th afternoon: Delivers June 17-24

My question:
Does this reflect that the production cycle in China/Foxcom is getting better/more stable/faster?

Can I expect another change to earlier?
Have anybody experienced several changes in delivery date as it get's closer?
Best regards from Sweden (ordered in Germany, friend pick up)
