42MM white sport + green sports band (for when I work out)

Was there an option for Apple care (US)? I did 2 separate transactions to make sure I snagged an AppleWatch. What are the rules with adding AppleCare later?
 
Think I screwed up. I messed up the delivery notification phone # at time of checking out. I realized this afterwards and went into my account to change it (not on the order).

I did get the order confirmation email though. But I can't view any of my orders. Did I screw up my order or is everything ok?
 
in and out under 2 minutes on App

Used App on 6+ as store never came online on mac
home connection wifi
Texas
1 order Milanese 42 mm, ship for delivery 4/24-5/8 (grrrr!)
second order for blue sport band, ships in 2-4 weeks
only pre-order allowed on app that I saw, the reservation option not seen so couldn't do the reservation I'd intended for the Space Black SS
no incidents before placing the two orders in less than 2 minutes, then app crashed, then came back

Edit: used ApplePay, easy-breezy overall. The one catch was earlier in evening when I did a test buy of another Apple product using the App and ApplePay since I'd never used App before--App required I enter a new shipping address and I failed to notice an extra numeral/typo on Address Line 1 before correct address on line 2. AND THEN that was saved, so accidentally chose it for shipping address for blue band, fortunately not for watch. I'll get in and delete that asap.

I think the system is going crazy. Can't view the orders section in the app either, but I got the email. Email should mean that you're fine. Give Apple some time to process your order
 
Apple Store App @12:03 ( web site just now became available to me at 12:11).

Apple Watch Sport Space Gray 42mm.

"Delivers 4/28 - 5/8 by standard shipping.

Easiest and quickest pre-order yet.
 
Mine says 4-6 weeks but that's fine .That's really only a couple extra weeks than most. Gone this long without one and I'm willing to wait a bit get what I want.. Feel sorry for the people that will go to eBay because they can't wait a few extra weeks for something that have done without .
 
I was so nervous lol

With less than 30 minutes to go, I'd like to set up this thread specifically for completed preorders and reservations of the WATCH. Please keep questions and non-related comments to a minimum.

Once you've completed either your preorder or reservation, please provide the following:
Apple website or Apple Store app? Apple website but app came up first but I couldn't see how to use my gift cards so I had to wait for website
Connected via home/work/public internet, or internet over cellular data? Wifi but my devices were connected to LTE
Where are you located? Blackstone,VA
How many did you order? 1
Which model(s) of the WATCH? 38 MM SS with milanese bracelet
Preorder or reservation? pre-order
Number of tries, errors, issues or other incidents of note before successfully completing - lots - I started hitting refresh at 245 EST

Ship date is 4/24-5/8 - was displaying that date when I had it in the app so that date was there once they went live.....

Ordered SS Milanese Loop. Ordered in first few minutes. App Store App iPhone 6+. Delivery on April 24th!!!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!
 
Apple Store app - Apple website remained down well after 3:01am EDT. With ApplePay it took me literally 15 seconds to place my pre-order.

Connected via my home internet

Located in the US

Ordered one

Ordered the 42mm Space Gray Watch Sport

Pre-order

Took me one try to successfully pre-order my watch through the Apple Store app. Just hoping that the shipping will be on the earlier end of the 4-6 week estimate...
 
I got the watch I wanted. (Space Gray 42mm Sport)

I am a little concerned about the ship date. (4/24-5/8)

Did I get in on the first shipment?

Also, I didn't see where to get apple care. (Oh well)
 
Has anyone been able to click on their order to see their status yet? Probably still too early but mine just says "something went wrong". Not entirely reassuring.
 
Managed to get 6... had to order the 3 i want on the Apple Store app at first since the website was still down and when the website went back up i was able to get the 3 i needed but using gift cards as payment!

Ill cancel the first 3 orders when im sure there is no delay in shipping, need of the watches for BDAY's on the 27th and 1st respectively so delays would not be good.
