Stainless Steel Space Black Shipping Status

Red is my favorite color.
Would love the contrast of red on Space Black. I bet it looks really freaking sharp. Can't wait for that to become an option.

I did a few exports from mixyourwatch. :) Can't wait for the red band!! :)

...and my watch of course. :)

They should change the design of the pins for the sport band so they screw apart. That way people could just change the pins to match their watch body.
 
So my white sports band (that I ordered last week) will arrive before my 42mm SBSSLB :( I'm getting so impatient!

Anyone see any movement on these in Canada?

Funny enough my SB SS Watch and my White Sport Band are arriving at the same time, (tomorrow). The only issue is that since my WSB is being shipped by FedEx, they are "required" by Apple to have at least one delivery attempt. Meh, I'll guess I'll have to wait for the WSB to arrive at the house.

I have faith that Apple wouldn't dream of putting watches in the store that are on back order. They will have a limited selection of watches that are surplus right now, and have been for a little while now.
Still waiting for my time to get narrowed down a bit, June is a little vague after all this time. Sigh.
3:26am eastern, Canada eh!!!

38mm has now shipped and is on its way. XX:12 in CA. Hoping that someone is around the apartment building to sign for it though while I'm at work :/

Don't feel bad. I ordered mine 4min after the site went up on April 10th & mine still says processing too. I'm reading ppl who ordered theirs after me having theirs shipped already.
 
I'm trying to enjoy this ride, but it sure is a long ride with no thrill thus far.

SSSB 42mm; confirmation 12:05:47 EST
"Processing Items" :apple:
 
Called in to Apple watch shipped the next day

I have been lurking in this thread since it was created. I just wanted to share my experience in case it helps someone else.

On launch night I ordered a watch for myself and my wife. Guessing that the sssb was more expensive I thought I would order her sports white 38 first then order mine. I ended up with an order time of 12:04:44 for my 42mm sssb watch. (that's the official time Apple gave me on chat)

My wife's watch arrived on launch day. Mine of course has been in an eternity of processing. I've been watching things like a hawk.. constantly logging in (and like many of you wishing apple used touch ID for the phone app). I've also had all of my UPS/FEDEX alerts set as well as credit card warnings. (I paid with Apple Pay)

Yesterday, while eating lunch I got an e-mail that an Apple order had declined. I immediately left my wife with a credit card to pay for the meal and went outside and called my CC company. They said Apple did not even attempt to charge anything and there was absolutely nothing wrong with my card. I had also just chatted with Apple tech support two days prior to make sure everything was ok with my order and my credit card and get the official time. They gave me the thumbs up.

I then called Apple to inquire. The order that sent me the e-mail about a failed transaction was actually for an adapter for something else. The rep told me that all my orders were showing a hold because of payment. I explained my obsession with making sure everything was right and he asked if he could put my CC number directly in their system as opposed to Apple Pay. I said yes. Within a few hours my watch went from processing to pfs and will be delivered tomorrow.

I don't know if this was just a timing issue.. or what... but I can't help but feel the watch was held up by this strange Apple Pay issue (even though tons of other orders with Apple pay went through with no problem)

I just wanted to give everybody who is still waiting the heads up about what happened to me.

I wonder if the banks tagged Apple Pay transactions as "be extra careful" due to the specious news of Apple Pay fraud concerns. Nothing inherent to Apple Pay transactions themselves, but a result of media hyperbole and fear-mongering.

Exactly! My black sport band (ordered 3 days after the watch) is going to be at my doorstep tomorrow, and my SSSB...............

I hope not. It certainly wouldn't help their relations with Apple if they did!!

As we're getting close to June starting to process (and I'm July), I called my CC company earlier today to make sure there wouldn't be a problem with a pre-auth from April being processed now or next month. They had to bounce me around a bit, as the agents didn't seem to know if there was a policy for that or not. Finally, I got talking to one of the people working in their fraud department and they assured me that there wouldn't be a hold or decline on the Apple Watch whenever it did finally go through.

I know many people were charged without a hiccup, but I've seen too many people get delays due to CC strangeness to be comfortable about it until I actually have a shipped status. :)
