If today is anything like the iPhone 6+ Transit Watch, then with all the planes that just landed, there have to be more coming.

yup
last night.
I had sort of accepted that I was not getting it until next week. then a few hours ago it went preparing for shipping
Still nothing
Still nothing on my 00:04 SG Sport, still says processing
But, my 38 April 11 Blue Sport which was June, is now on the way with shipping info and confirmation and I have another 42 Blue Sport 00:03 that is on the way, although there is no shipping info.
I should say, for both of the above UPS has had tracking info since about 10:00 PST, even though only one shows shipped on Apple.com
But, for the 42 SG 00:04 SG Sport, EOD, no charge YET but I'm still hopeful. Here on the left coast its only 14:50, we could easily see charges take place in the next couple hours and then still ship for tomorrow delivery. I actually put the odds at greater than 50% (and NO it's not wishful thinking, I could care less really if it arrives next week)
But, here's my crazy theory
The 42 (possibly 38) SG Sport were ALWAYS HERE!. Its the easiest watch and probably the one that apple had the most orders for and probably the one that apple MADE the most of in advance.
All the other colored Aluminium Sport watches have to be CUSTOM made, at least custom put together. Much cheaper to do that step abroad based on labor price and where the bands are produced.
Maybe they made a ton of SG sport, already shipped them here and had them in standby and then the Alu Sports with custom bands have been MADE in the past two weeks since the order date (or at least the difference between what WAS made and what NEEDED to be made) was put together and then shipped out JIT in the past 48 hours to various destinations in the NA and ROW.
Would make sense for the flood or SG Sports that got CHARGED and SHIPPED today around 10:00 PST. Do all the others that have come in, get them charged and shipped and then do the work on the stock inventory (the SG Sport in this case) while you wait for the next shipment of Alum Sport in various colors to arrive.

All Apple reps seem to be saying is, "you should still be one of the first to have." True, but when others who were due in May/June are getting shipment notifications, kind of hard to believe that, lol. Hopefully they're still processing orders.
This is curtains boys. It's 6pm Easter, what more could happen?
If I don't get it by next Friday i'll be mega p*ssed.

That may be the case. If you're right, however, why are so many 42SG sports still stuck processing with no charge? They're getting dangerously close to missing the overnight deadline to deliver tomorrow.
