The SS Apple Watch Leather Loop update thread

How many days before April 24th did people start seeing movement in their order status?

Were they preparing for shipment a week before or 2 days before?

I'm definitely expecting some of us to get Movement soon.

Everyone knows that TC is waiting like the rest of us. Why do you think he's only pictured wearing the Sport Band?

I think it was like four days before or something, but others have gotten a shipping notice the day before.
 
I'm sitting here staring at my freaking green sport band and my wife's Milanese loop and freaking green sport ban, all of which arrived today.

Two watches, ordered at 12:03 freaking am PST on April freaking 10. Ugh...

THANKS, APPLE!!

PS freaking.
 
Phone Call

So I got a phone call from Austin TX yesterday, and I didn't answer it because I didn't know who it was. (No voicemail was left for me.)

I called the number back just now, and it's Apple. I got a simple recording saying their offices are currently closed and their hours are between 8-5 (I think it said 5, don't recall for certain.)

Has me wondering why they would call, and from that number. I believe a lot of their customer service calls come from that area in the U.S. (Was many years ago when I first switched from PC to Mac that I had to deal with the executive customer service people.

Of course it has me thinking it's about my watch order.

For the record, I'm not one of those people that "emailed Tim" or anything since Apple's commitment to me is May 13 - May 27.

Maybe they're calling us one by one now and they will give us a reward for the wait? One can hope. :D

That's not bad to have ordered almost an hour after the orders went live and still have the 4-6 week delivery! You have to be a little happy with that.

Similar situation here. Had to cancel first order that was within 5 minutes. My current order was received by Apple 13:35 minutes after preorders began.

I was going to order the Space Black but the Whole July thing put me off, so went with my second choice. I am lucky enough to be sporting the 38mm SG which my wife kindly let me steal for the duration of my wait.
I have completely got used to the size now and when I see the 42mm it looks huge!

I would actually be quite happy with a 38mm now cause after a few days you realise that you are really only looking at the watch for 15-30 seconds at a time and the size really doesn't matter :eek:

Still I know I made the right choice because every few days I go to the Apple Store and make sure....

yes. same here. i assumed it's because i have a UK IP right now (split time between here and US), but does seem strange that it happened to others as well. maybe that means movement? or that they pushed an update to force international standards :)

Mine didn't have the year originally, had to read it 6 times to make sure it didn't say 2016

Mine says Processing Items Available to ship: 4-6 weeks
Delivers: 13 May, 2015 - 27 May, 2015 by Standard Shipping

Couldn't tell you what it used to say. :)
 
Guess our :apple: WATCHES aren't getting delivered til next week. :(

Also thanks for the Twitter follow brazzam (found out you can't mention people on the forums)!
 
And that's the end of week 2. I'm not sure what to think.

I have never pre-ordered an Apple product online. I deal with the line at the Apple Store and with the iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6, I got lucky at Best Buy within the first week of release (got the iPad Air 2 on day 1 without pre-order). I have never had to wait 2 weeks after release date... This was the first time I ordered as soon as it showed up online (XX:03am and yes, I didn't look at what the shipping time frame was) and this? With the shipping time frame I shouldn't be frustrated... but I am.

Same here but I thought that's what it always said.
 
Guys, remember this...

When we have our Watches with Leather Loops delivered, we'll not be able to post in this thread anymore. Now that will be sad, no? :(

Apple Watch delivered! YAY!

No more posting in this thread... *cries* :(

It's a trade I'm willing to make, but it shall be a tough one...
