Stainless Steel Space Black Shipping Status

Mrsemexter said:
Got a pending payment of £1, got the May shipment date, could this be Apple preparing to ship our watches finally? Maybe later this week?

I've had one of these on my account for like a week. It's just sat there as DEBIT CARD AUTH and hasn't updated to say what it is. I dont know if it's a pending authorisation though.
 
im going for a modern buckle. would the brown or midnight blue look bad with the Space black?

I feel sorry for the person that tries to strike a conversation with you at the checkout line at the grocery store. I'd imagine you'd tell them that the line is only for paying and not talking. People try to find ways to pass the time with people who are in the same line for the same thing. The soup nazi must have told you to come back in one year.

I have no issue striking up a conversation with people over random stuff anywhere, but when people start rambling on about stuff like the "DLC conspiracy theory" above, to me it's like someone trying to bang on about chemtrails and how the government is using mind control. Doesn't interest me in the slightest.

Speak to me about something remotely entertaining and I'll be happy to talk about it.
 
My 42mm SS ordered at 830am on 4/10 just changed to preparing for shipment. But the SB SS 42mm ordered :04 min is still sitting there. Processing
 
Adelaide here and My SS SB Watch remains Processing with "available to Ship June" still against it, but my Black S Band has just gone "Preparing for Shipment" which had a window of 25 May -01 June so here's hoping the same thing happens to the watch :)

Damn I don't even remember posting that I was drunk lol
 
1 day away from my delivery window starting and still "processing" for this to be delivered tomorrow I would expect movement by early evening going off past experiences, I hold no hope and Apple are still saying it's going to be between the 12/05-26/05
 
me too.

05/12 - but to be honest: i got no hope that i will receive the watch tomorrow. i can't remember any delivery situation in the apple history, where the desired product isn't seen anywhere in "natural environment". this watch is nearly complete invisible. i am very sceptic.

I agree, I'm in the UK with 12/5 - 26/5 and no movement on any front. Maybe next week we will see the 1st wave of shipments, which will still be in alignment with the projected delivery schedule. Sooner would definitely be nice though.:)

I will be majorly p****d off if it is next week, although that will still be within the delivery schedule quoted it will still be a joke we have waited long enough I believe Apple have had more than enough time to put these through production and have them shipped by now think people forget we have been waiting 31 days

Fulfilling band only orders before the watch orders is a complete joke also their answer because shipping the band only orders is a simpler process
 
While I know their word doesn't mean much an apple sales rep (off the apple website) told me they could start shipping asap for my ship date (20/5-28/5)


IF anybody has a 38mm ordered you will prbly go up in que soon as I'm most likely going to get my order cancled on me by Apple

It has been a painful wait, and a month of trying not to wish time away. I wrote to Tim Cook last week and got a response from customer relations the following morning. I was on a call for 25 minutes listening to how they didn't quite get it right, but I felt good that they were dong all they can to fulfil orders in the timeframe. We are waiting for in my opinion the best model of the Watch, it will be worth the pain and the wait, but I share with you the frustrations of not having any reassurance from Apple that the product is actually real. It's been difficult to judge what is real when there has been limited visibility of the Space Black model.

Hang in there!:apple::D

You say they said they are doing all the can to fulfil watch orders unfortunately there might be evidence of that for other models but not ours so to me that phrase (that I keep also being told) is irrelevant to us

Update: My link bracelet status changed to dispatched, and upon checking the UPS tracking, it says it has departed from China.

I know it's only the SS Link but it looks like we will be getting them direct from China

And this is my point it's a joke that "band only" orders are being dispatched before the actual watch orders

Right, because it's not like the bands are a pre-req for the assembly of our watches or anything.

Logistics have been explained time and again...it makes sense that the bands ship before the watches when we're waiting on the production line for ours (as we're one of the less popular models).

PFS is just around the corner for most...
