The SS Apple Watch Leather Loop update thread

The only one I was thinking maybe about was the last one as they still don't claim to have them just tracking numbers at least what I noticed. But I am still thinking that the update will come in a batch and we will see a bunch of updates at once.
That's my guess. This thread will go from no one having a shipping notice to lots of people getting them. I doubt they will trickle in.
First one is def an apple store, and twitter feed is Canadian. I want USA shipping confirmation please!
Most likely it is going to be like iPhone presales, all of a sudden everyone in this group is going to see movement.

This guy on Reddit says once things do move from Processing, it can all get moving pretty quickly.
Hoping ours all have this fast turnaround!

I think we have all seen that trend of once things move from processing it is pretty fast. The problem is we are not moving from processing
In case anyone is/was thinking of doing the same and considering the classic leather band, I would like to amend my post above and advise not to!
I went to my AS today and compared the two on my arm and I have to report that the LL beats the CLB hands down. The latter is so flimsy and cheapy that it is really hard to believe it is an Apple product at all. Really seemed like it had a value of 1/10th of what we know it costs. As was the reason for me choosing the LL in the first place, if you're going to have a technically advanced watch, you may as well have a technically advanced strap too.
Definitely a case of worth the wait for the superior strap.
That said, for God's sake can't they get a bloody move on?
My Mobile WiFi HotSpot from Amazon is shipping.
To be honest: Amazon has amazing delivery predictions.
To be honest, Amazon already has the products they sell physically in their warehouse and therefore the only estimate they give you is how long it takes someone to go, take your product, box it up, and ship it. Apple has fuzzier estimates because the watches aren't even made yet (the earliest were made a few weeks ago, most a week or two ago). For products it hasn't made, Amazon is even worse (most people who got their Echo invitations have a June delivery date... They ordered in Jan/Feb).
If there is really some problem, and they aren't going to meet the window they gave us it would be nice if Apple were to offer us the SS with sports band to ship sooner, and just send us the leather loop when they have them...
Hey "Teach4" didn't order hers until April 11 and even has a 38 SS M.Loop complained to Apple and said they gave her a gift card for $84.14. I don't believe her at all, especially if there's a whole bunch of us that ordered immediately still waiting.
The weird thing is these magnetic straps (except for Milanese) are the ones that Apple has been marketing ever since yet these are the ones that got delayed so bad.
Mine is in the 4/29-5/13 window. As of now, no updates on it so I highly doubt I'll be getting it tomorrow. Possibly Friday?
If it gets to ship tomorrow then probably yes, we can all hope it would just start shipping already.
