If it is true that the links are being shipped to the shops it will be a hood news: normally the same time link watches will be shipped to us too 
If you highlight the text which says "the watch is here." And continue highlighting you'll find hidden text, "the watch is here...still being assembled"
i found this to be a real kick right to the balls from apple. maybe cross-reference your email lists to make sure you aren't sending this to a customer that hasn't received their pre-order yet. come on. for the record - 42mm SS Space Black Link - 3:03am EST. Processing.
Exactly, completely agree. As someone that works as the digital marketing acquisition director for a F-500, we'd never do something that.
It's also really misleading even for Apple. Just clicking a random 5 or 6 watches everything says June. Why direct market like that with a call to action under the premise of 'here'. It's not smart branding goodwill either.
My "pending" since 4/12 charge of $69 (AppleCare) just disappeared off my credit card. 42mm SS SB w/SB link band (ordered 4/10 :08) still says Processing and June. Sigh. Bad news or, are they now going to really charge me?
I just got charged for Apple Care...
Curious?
Actually charged or an authorization?
I just saw in another thread where someone stated that they found out that several Apple stores had returned their Space Black Link try-on models. Someone else said there is a defect in the DLC process?
I don't know what to believe any more. This is only hearsay.
The lack of official information sucks. Also I saw in another thread that he saw someone with a regular link bracelet shortly after launch day. He didn't ask the person where he got it but rather when and the person replied "Friday" (launch day).
XX:03 email confirmation - 4-6 week shipping club. space black of course

I had a auth for nearly week that dropped off for the AppleCare, sitting there, teasing me. Saying, "Hey, just in case your forgot, your watch hasn't shipped yet."
Does anyone else think it's odd that the Space Black watch isn't in any of the commercials? The Edition is, but not Space Black.
Mine disappeared as "pending" off my CC also this morning. It was the Apple Care they had pre authorized on 4/10? Seems strange, unless my bank just removes it if not used. The charge for the extra chargers went through and posted.
There are two threads existing on this already. You can use the search function of the forum to find them. Nobody has received theirs yet, unfortunately.
at this point I'm indifferent, i really don't care anymore about the watch and the more time passes the more i see it as an impulsive purchase than something i truly need.. i have a great watch already and this is more to tickle my inner nerd than anything.. i don't even check anything about tracking or charges at all and haven't in days.. have zero enthusiasm or excitement for it. the thrill of a "non-existent launch" is gone..
Well, you made me look
- and I think that rumor is false, as I saw two beloved Space Black models on display in Clarendon VA this evening at 6pm....Whew!
