Anyone who got charged last night get moved from PFS to Shipped yet? Not me. Hoping for a Friday delivery here.
 
I now have a Preparing for Shipment status.

42 mm Space Black
Email confirmation: xx:05:38 on April 10
Location: Ontario, Canada
Original availability: June

How can that be? I'm a 3:26am in Ontario with a June date and no change in status.
 
Congrats to all of the 05's that moved last night!! :) (and the one 06 from Aus!!) Awesome!

For those several minutes after (yes, Chulan, I'm looking at you) - you guys need to chill. You really shouldn't expect any movement at all until others close to your times start reporting changes in status. You're getting yourselves all worked up, and for what? This is just a new toy - it isn't something that any of us NEED. Try to relax a bit! :)

Great post. Proper prospective is helpful in this space black vortex of uncertainty.

42mm; 3:05:47 EST; still Processing ⌚️
 
Can't believe they only moved one minute's worth of orders last night. Glad I was in it, but still, wow.

We have no way of knowing how many thousands of watches is in each wave. We know from analysts reports that the vast majority of orders were in the first hour.

A very small % of people buying the watches are on this site. Gaging what Apple's doing by the few on this thread? Not accurate at all.
 
time on our hands

Any one in uk who ordered AT 910 am at the apple shop, ONLY TO get a 1010am order time , june delivery , no change .still Processing aaarrggggghhhhh :mad

Did you actually confirm that with Apple or are you going just by the e-mail?

E-mail headers are ONLY a good general indication of when you ordered. There's no quality of service on e-mail delivery. Most companies don't care how quickly they're sent out. You could very much have a 9:11am order, but the e-mail got delayed due to IMAP issues at Apple and didn't send until 10:10am.

Hmm. What time did the store open in the UK? PDT is UTC -7, which would suggest it opened at 7am. If you're a couple hours in, you shouldn't expect any change for awhile, sorry to say.
 
This thing needs to change from preparing to ship to shipped asap. It's been to long of a wait. Just got the charge last night about 1030CST

Same here. You think it's been a long wait by now. From now until you get your watch will feel like FOREVER!
 
Thanks guys, yes sliding the band out,

I did unlink the band as per the instructions, but it still seems stuck - the "buttons" don't seem to travel as much as a SS that I'm comparing it too. I wonder if it's tight in part due to the DLC coating? I obviously don't want to force it too much.

DLC is only 1-3 microns thick and it is apparently fairly slick, so I don't think that could be it.

Wikipedia:
"The primary desirable qualities are hardness, wear resistance, and slickness (DLC film friction coefficient against polished steel ranges from 0.05-0.20[7])."

I did..got moved to shipped but no info on ups tracking.

Email from apple says will be delivered on 5/22..so Friday delivery looks like a thumbs up..was charged overnight.

Hoping you have the same success.

I was charged at 1:30AM EST and it shipped at 2PM EST so you're still in a normal window.

Mine arrived in PA around 6:30PM, left PA at 11PM and was in NH by 7AM and on a truck by 8AM. Pretty darn fast but I noticed tracking didn't update as soon as there was movement...like the 6:30PM arrival to PA didn't show up until around 8PM on UPS' site.
 
Stupid DHL, I was here the entire time but their tracking says I was not home. Pissed off right now.

Lazy driver. I've had both UPS and FedEx pull that crap with me before. Call them and tell them the driver didn't show up. They may be able to get him to loop back.

Is the UPS hub close to you? (may be easier to get them to hold it there and you pick it up at the end of the day).
