It's impossible- Many of us pre-order early and got early ship date than July. Care to Show us proof, u can mask out the important info on the CC
The mix with the millinase is very interesting. Doesn't look as weird as I thought it would
From what I have read Apple has contracted with Foxcon to build Apple Watches in a attempt to catch up on backorders.

The last four photos are reassuring. Many pictures I've seen show the Space Black as gunmetal rather than black, and I prefer black, though I could settle on gunmetal. It seems as though the lighting angle and/or display case diffraction make a huge difference in the hue of the material.
Yes, some of the display models are a completely different color. I was just at an Apple Store today and the space black one in the case is not even close to being black. Some people will try and tell you that it's the lighting in the case, but it's not. Some of the early display models are just a completely different color, like gunmetal.
All of the ones that that I've seen in tryout videos seem to be fine. None of the Apple stores near me have one for tryouts.
Isn't that weird?. They couldn't produce enough SSSB watches for the try on?. Where they having problems with the coatings to get the right shade?
I just hope this is not going to be a case like the first white iPhone, which was delayed for months, remember?
Who knows. We may very well never know why they have had no SS Link watches of any kind ready to ship yet.
Sorry, low blow. You guys are waiting for the decidedly best watch they designed, so I didn't feel bad giving you a little grief, but now I do
Thank you!!! Those photo's make me more anxious, I ordered the classic leather and Milanese at launch, should arrive soon!

I read this too, but unfortunately it's going to take quite a while to get everything in place to do so. Word I heard is Foxcon won't be up and running with building watches until later in the year. Why Apple didn't go with them in the first place is beyond me.
