Anyone feel like decoding my situation? I had to stop reading the email of doom drama last night so not sure if a new pattern emerged.

42mm SG/black sport, :03:32, Processing, no charge, NO email of doom. I am definitely receiving emails from Apple properly because I got a shipping email overnight that my 38mm/white has shipped. East coast, kind of close to a few potential hubs.

I see several people who got the alleged "email of doom" now had their status change this morning. Could NOT receiving the email of doom actually equal doom?

My email confirmation arrived a few seconds after yours, and I'm in the same situation. No one really knows, but it's easy to see why people think the email means no Friday delivery. Most who received it have no charges or status changes and we're a day away.

Thanks. So basically we are in the bizarre-est of limbos. :) Well, glad it's not just me.
 
Got the email last night. 42mm Space Gray sport with black band. Order conf came in at 3:04 in Ohio. Are there any more planes etc being staged for delivery tomorrow?

Ordered same as you and same time as you and I also live in Ohio.
I did get the email O' death last night.
 
starting to regret ordering the Space Gray.. should have went with Stainless Steel sport model probably would have gotten it on launch day :mad:
 
I haven't been cursed with the email of impending doom, however I haven't been blessed with a charge on my credit card and still processing.

:04 and :05

Sad in St. Louis
 
Took a closer look at my fiances UPS tracking and saw that her watch and I assume mine as well are coming from Rialto, CA only an hour or two flight to CO. There may yet still be hope, its ridiculous what we convince ourselves of.

My parents in another nearby New England state both ordered 38/42mm Sport with white bands and they received tracking numbers that show guaranteed delivery for tomorrow by 3pm.

I just had to click the damn Space Grey!

UK. Ordered :03 and payment taken, but still processing and have had email of doom.

My wifes :04 white sport 38mm is already picked up and on its way. :mad:

Interesting, you had your payment taken and got the EOD and are still in processing? That's tough.

I have not had any money taken and am still in processing and received EOD.

Was thinking the same thing, this is by far the worst ordering experience in Apple history. They don't even put people in a queue in the order properly, it's completely random. Awful customer service all around from not meeting release dates to hype for almost a year.. and they can't get the product out the door? This wouldn't have happened 6 years ago by any means.
 
You are actually tracking random planes? This is getting silly.

I think our only hope is that a decent chunk of SG orders are sitting in hubs right now. By tonight they are shipped out and waiting for us tomorrow.

At this point, I feel that's pretty optimistic. More realistically, we will be getting them next week.

Now it's silly?

It may have always been silly, but we've got to keep our spirits up somehow.
 
Ordered 2 watches with confirmation at 00:03:10:
- 38mm SG Sport for myself
- 38mm Aluminum Sport for the wife

Wife will get hers tomorrow. I'll remain in limbo. I did NOT get the email of death, only a shipping confirmation showing they're sending 1 out of 2 watches.

Tough week for SG orders. Hang in, it'll be worth the wait.

In the same exact boat, except mine is a 42, at least almost no one is getting SGs at launch. No need to have FOMO of not having the new hotness :D

Yup same here. My 42 and 38 Silver Sport are coming tomorrow, and my Space Gray is just chilling somewhere in the world. My guess is we'll keep seeing new shipping notices every day, so I expect to see more movement this afternoon for Monday and such. So hang in there guys and gals, next week is almost here! Just avoid MacRumors over the weekend :D
 
No email of death, still processing, no charge. Thinking I won't get my watch anytime soon.
 
42mm Space Gray Sport w/Black Band

Ordered 4/10 around 3:00pm EST. Received "Processing Items" email at 4:05pm

Nothing has changed yet. Card hasn't been charged or anything.

I've been checking nonstop since 4/10 as if, by some miracle, I'll see a change.

Same here. Reality is slowly starting to set in.

I may have to avoid this forum for a while after tomorrow.
