On another note my friend ordered a Milanese loop and received an EOD for delivery in 3-4 weeks, his original delivery timeframe. I hope it's a good sign that we didn't receive any EODs!
 
Sure glad no one around me has an Apple Watch for me to drool over. The only other person I know that's actually waiting for one is a co-worker in another department, and his is the Space Black SS also. Poor guy has to wait till June though, 1 hour after go-live ordering.

Mine was xx-18.39 and got June also. Does anyone know when it went to June for the 42 SB?
 
I wonder if these are delayed due to the metal. The silver SS scratches very easily, but since it is bright silver, they do not show that much.

Imagine a black SS scratching. Won't that be much more obvious? I am afraid that the black stainless is going to be scratch magnet.

If Apple has done a good job with the DLC coating, it should be very difficult to scratch. Of course nothing is impossible to scratch, but it should be very durable.

This morning my date was moved from June to May 20-28th.

I received an EOD #2 about half an hour ago.

My confirmation was :06:15

2 EODs?! I didn't know any of us received one. I ordered the SS Black 42 at 12:03 and have yet to receive any EOD.. I hope that's good news and I'm not just over analyzing.
 
Maybe I'm missing something here, but could someone clarify for me..

Why is it that my order keeps jumping from "Dispatched: June" to "Available to ship: June" - are these just two similar statuses that Apple has revolving around on their order page or is it simply Apple making changes to delivery times?

I have no clue at all. I haven't noticed any changes like this yet to my order. My delivery estimate date has remained the same 5-13 - 5-27 nothing changed even with the wording of it either. I wish that it would hurry up though.

I have not seen the "Dispatched" Mine has been Available to ship: June since XX.18.39 order time. Although my extra charging cables are arriving tomorrow! (I can play with them for a month:()

I've been told I have a knack for the obvious, but here goes anyway: it got moved up from "June" to the last two weeks of May because it's been over two weeks since we ordered. I suspect, as weeks go by, the estimate will improve further. :p

That said (tongue thoroughly in cheek), mine still says "June". 0008 4/10 email confirmation.
 
Remember, the carbon coating will harden the finish. This watch should (if Apple does it right) be the most resistant of the bunch to scratches.

I imagine it'll look like my black Rimowa suitcases. Look nice in the beginning and then six months down the line, a cheap scratched up POS. :mad:
 
Anything?

Has anyone with an original timeframe of 4-6 weeks (May 13-27) received an EOD or charge yet? Particularly anything for the Space Black 42mm.

Nah thats not going to happen. A suitcase is not the same as a watch....

Original May 13-27 timeframe here with no EOD as of yet. No movement either.
 
If i went from june to may 20-28, is that the final date?
or it could still come quicker?

I think that's it. If I had to guess they didn't expect the number of Link orders they got and they have a relatively narrow pipeline for the brushing and plating of the Space Black Link watch. They've stated in videos that it takes 9+ hours of each set of links (probably running a batch in parallel to speed up the process, they aren't polished them individually for 9 hours straight) and that's not something they can't cut corners on, time-wise. Three weeks is long enough time for them to see production yields and get their timelines down to pretty accurate levels and I think we're seeing them adjust accordingly. The earliest orders will likely see movement beginning at the end of next week for deliveries the following week of the 13th but orders like yours are probably extremely close to what they are telling you now, unless a lot of orders for links got cancelled.
 
When I start seeing the SS Space Black in the try on tables at Apple I'll know the watches are here. So far many stores don't have this model in any size for try on.
Hopefully this changes soon.

I tried one on in utah. It was glorious.
 
No movement for me either. I'm still at May 13-27th.
I ordered a 42mm white sport band at the same time. . No movement for that either. Also no charge on my CC.
