and thus various people will have different options shown, what was kinda the point even if I wasn’t clear about it.
The two Apple Stores near me in California are still ”temporarily closed”. No options for pick up. I’ll just have to wait until October 1-5 until my Red Watch 6 arrives
 
yeah cincinnati isnt closed. im hoping at 3am store pickup is open, i will try that if not i will try at&t at8am

I’d say I’m 99% sure att will have little to no stock. Unless you are near one of their big flagships none of the stores have them.

While I do have the SBTi 44mm with sport loop band ordered and delivery date set for 9/25 - 9/29 and is currently in PFS, I ordered an in-store pick up for the Blue Aluminum Case 44mm as well just to see what the color is like. I'll likely end up returning it and keeping the SBTi tho.
 
Sadly, Apple store near me does not carry the Apple Watch Edition so I have to order them for delivery.
 
Personal shopping for my area is available for all of today and then unavailable until next week (for all 4 stores around me) so making an appointment won’t work. I guess the only thing is ordering for in store pickup at some time. If I had to guess, after midnight is when it would activate. But who knows.

Same. No shopping appointments here in MA for Friday release. and no pick up for the watch. I suspect they are trying to manage crowds. I will just be patient.

Yup, I was able to order my model for in store pickup today!

where do you live? what model? when did you place the order?

EDIT:

Well DANG. Answered my own question, the watch I could not order for pickup yesterday (Thursday) at my store .. I CAN TODAY (just tried, Friday). 44 mm Product red with cellular. so tempting. but mine in the mail should be coming next week... can I be patient?

EDIT 2:

Yeah, that patience lasted all of 2 minutes. Pick mine up at 3 pm. Will return the other when it comes in.

It's not USA but I just reserved one to pickup today at Eaton Centre in Toronto. They make you pick a 15min pickup slot.
 
I preordered a red watch and it is out for delivery today. I’m seeing graphite in stock for pick up today at the apple store closest to me and it’s super tempting.
 
I had placed an order with Att this morning but was able to get the same watch for in store pickup at Apple so cancelled the Att order.

You have two wrists, presumably.

Why not have two watches, one for each? :p
 
I had a graphite solo loop on order for end of month delivery and just placed a pickup in nyc order that I’m picking up in half hour. Looks like there is plenty of stock in a lot of stores in NYC area!
 
Is anyone seeing the watches with braided loop bands for pick up? I am not seeing them anywhere near me and i am wondering whether they are not available yet.
 
I ordered 2 AWs on Tuesday immediately the event ended -1 titanium and 1 SS both with the braided loop. I got shipping notices to be delivered on 9/28 this morning.

Well this morning San Francisco has my titanium with a sports band available so I had to snag it. So today I pick it up at 1145am. Returning my 2 orders when they arrive. I will order the band separately after I see some feedback.

Does iStockNow not work anymore? Any other stock checking websites? Our local stores don’t have any Titanium models that I can tell. Kind of hard to check.
 
I don't think iStockNow has updated for S6 yet - I can only see S5 on there.

Has anyone in Texas been able to schedule a pick up for today yet? I thought it was opening up by timezones but no stores in TX have any watches available as of 845AM CST.

From what I could tell for the Ti models, only the sport loops seem to be available, at least here. There are two Apple Stores in my area that carry Ti models and they only have sport loop combinations from what I can tell.

I'm not seeing any braided loops available in my area. They seem very scarce and they might be hard to come by because of the variety of sizes anyway
 
Checked a few times last night with no luck but at 9AM ET today, the app updated and I was able to order pretty much any Series 6 model (with the exception of braided loop or sport band options) for in-store pickup today on Long Island / NYC. Have a 11am pickup appointment. Sure beats 9/29!
