Stainless Steel Space Black Shipping Status

42 XX:04:58 CT here and still no charges, no email. Very discouraging. About three days left and they miss their "ships in 5-6 weeks" window.

Why do you keep putting CT? Isn't it meaningless without the hour? :)

You gotta be getting close. I think all of the late 04's and early 05's are the first out of the door next. Could be today, could be tail end of the week.

Wasn't your window the 26th or 27th? (we've seen people change status and have it the next day) - so, they really do still have time.

Its not meaningless to me. I'm interested in where the watches are going as well. Although, at this point, I guess it really doesn't matter.

The window is ships in "4-6 weeks" delivers by May 27. While they could ship on May 26 and deliver it to me on May 27, then that's shipping in 7 weeks, not 6.

I'm sure Apple has people keeping a close eye on all of the shipping windows and those orders in risk of not hitting it (and, obviously, they'll know about the US holiday monday - and, no, UPS doesn't deliver on statutory/bank holidays).

They run a pretty big risk NOT getting you your watch this week - so you'll definitely see a status change this week. (but, it may mean you get delivery Tuesday). That's worst case scenario - they haven't missed yet.

Edit: Because people will ask, I live in New Hampshire. We don't have any sales tax or income tax so my Apple gear is just slightly cheaper. I used to live in San Francisco (9.5% Sales Tax). It always hurt quite a bit when buying a MacBook pro.

Heh...you just might!! :) You should get an e-mail from Apple with your target delivery date once you flip to shipped. Provided you flip to shipped today, you'll definitely have it for the long weekend at the very least!

Congrats!! :)

Must be nice living in a sales tax free state... :p

When I bought a car here, it was nice not paying sales tax then I went to register my car with DMV and had to pay $600..it drops about 3-5% per year but registration is very expensive...so is property tax.

Tax is there just in very creative ways.

Plus, in a 50 mile radius around me, every fire department is "volunteer" and roads aren't that great. I'd rather pay sales tax and have better services but 'live free and die' and all that :)

Lol good point, they do stick it to you one way or another
 
The fact that a couple minutes is literally a months difference in shipping still baffles me.

Xx:10 confirm
June delivery
0 updates.

I think you are right. I'm just put off because I leave town Saturday and wont' be back until the following saturday. It would have been fun to have this watch to play with on the long flight. There is still a chance if it ships today or tomorrow, but I'm growing pessimistic.

Dispatched!! :D Sent by UK Mail, but says Delivery on Monday 25th?!?! Hope that's wrong!

Am still PFS but hoping for a change in the coming hour.

I hope 25th is wrong! Am actually hoping we have them by tomorrow!

Who is your carrier? UPS? TNT?

Carrier is UK Mail. Apple Store App also notified me saying delivered by Friday 22nd, but website still says 25th?? No idea! Courier is UK Mail and tracking info is not working in their website yet.

I am checking out watch stands and this one I found is nice. Except the battery backup is way too massive for a keychain.

This is pretty cool, I just signed up and input my order/status. I think this kind of thing would've helped us all in a much more organized way long ago. lol
