The SS Apple Watch Leather Loop update thread

tmdorsey said:
Appreciate the thread, so thought I would let you guys now that I ordered a 42mm SS BLL Medium on April 19th and today the watch which was stuck with a generic "June" shipping date just changed to "Available to ship: 2-3 weeks Delivers May 26 - Jun 1"

My order just changed to Preparing for Dispatch. Ordered a 42 SS with medium black LL on 11 April. June was the original dispatch date, so happy that it looks like it'll be with me 'early'

I have a hard time believing both of these posts unless I see proof. I ordered my 42mm SS with medium Black Leather Loop on April 10 and I have a delivery window of May 29 to June 11. I am in the US. Unless these deliveries are in other countries, even then it is wrong, it makes no sense for Apple to ship someone who ordered later for the same exact watch before an earlier order.
 
My "June" delivery status updated

42mm Stainless Steel with classic buckle

Been waiting since April 12th. Finally see a change in my Order Status:

Available to ship: 2-3 weeks
Delivers: May 26 - June 1

Mine has been delivered, but I will have to wait until tomorrow 15:00 ...
At least I know the wait is over.

Off-Topic: Rest In Peace, BB King, Your life's journey was impressive and inspiring,

Sorry, had to say that.

You might have a hard time believing it, but it's the truth. No, I'm not going to provide proof, just take my word for it. Yes, I live in one of those 'other' countries (UK). I'm not sure why you're so surprised, because there are people posting all over the forums that they are getting watches before others even though they ordered later on. It's frustrating, but that's what appears to be happening. I was fully expecting to get delivery in June, so getting a status change yesterday to Preparing for Dispatch was a pleasant surprise. I hope you get your watch soon. Peace.
 
42mm SS BLL ordered 4/13

Great thread helping me keep my sanity as I wait!

Thought I'd add my experience...

Ordered on 4/13 and received "June" shipping estimate - wish I hadn't waited so long!
5/13 - AppleCare pending charge on card, no other charges
5/15 - Shipping status updated to 5-6 weeks, delivery 6/22 - 6/29

Hoping Apple is under promising and over delivering!

Patience is a virtue.
Patience is a virtue.
Patience is a virtue... :(

As a side note - wife's 38mm SS Milanese ordered same day delivered last week. Mother's 38mm SS Milanese ordered 5/11 delivering today :eek:

Congrats on your upcoming watch. My problem is more with Apple then you. We both ordered the same 42mm SS with Medium Black Leather Loop. I ordered on April 10, you on April 11. I have not really seen anyone who ordered the same exact watch with the exact same band and size get their watch a lot earlier than someone who ordered a day or more before that person. For me to get my watch say on the last day of when my window is (remember I have May 29 to June 11) You are talking about a 3 week difference and you ordered a day after I did. You probably would be upset too.
Hopefully my window move up soon also.
Good luck and I hope you enjoy your new toy (whoops, I mean watch).
 
Doing my best to wait patiently.

Ordered on April 11th - Had a delivery window of "June" until yesterday - now changed to '25 June - 2 July'

What do you think my odds are of receiving it earlier?
Sounds like some of you have placed orders later but have earlier delivery times?

Wow! So jealous! Our orders sound identical.

I am to jealous too, especially when I ordered the same 42mm SS with Medium Black LL on April 10, and it still says May 29 to June 11.

Oh well, patiently waiting.

Congrats (trying not to be sarcastic). I am really excited for you.

This was originally going to be my birthday present in March, then it was going to be my 20th anniversary present from my wife which is in less than 2 weeks. Maybe I will get it sometime next week. We will see.

My date window I was given was june3-16 and mines coming today so i doubt you will actually have to wait that long.
 
been lurking - I ordered April 17, and my ship date got updated last night from June to

Available to ship: 5-6 weeks
Delivers: 22 Jun, 2015 - 29 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping
 
So I cancelled my original order but just re-ordered the watch with blue leather loop yesterday (had to charge $3k to a card within 3 months to get a bunch of miles so found another excuse to order this). It originally stated it would ship in July but now it's June 25 - July 10. Not bad for a very late order...
 
Update

Ordered 42mm SS brown May 3rd. Said 'July' delivery this morning. I checked again and said it will be delivered the last week in May.

Nice surprise after wallowing for a bit.
