Still waiting and this...

http://techcrunch.com/2015/05/21/apple-watch-bands-show-up-in-apple-retail-stores/

Picked up a black sport band (42 mm) at the store yesterday, for the watch I don't have yet. No leather loops or any other bands except for the color sport bands and a few Milanese loops in 38 mm. Still waiting for my brown leather loop.

I ordered a 42 SS watch with blue leather loop on 4/17 and am still showing 6/22-6/29 shipping. I haven't seen any blue medium SS watches shipped for quite a while - I don't think I've seen any shipped for at least a week? A lot of large blue loops shipped recently, but no mediums. Based on what I've seen, I think they may still be shipping out 4/10 orders. Anyone else have any observations on medium blue loops?

Same observation as you, nothing has happened for a while, anywhere, with Med Blue LL. maybe next week...,
 
4:50am EST... Couldn't sleep. Checked my order status and got this.

42 SS BLL (Medium) went from the 22nd to the 19th as well last night with PFS.

I ordered on 4/11 mid-afternoon and I am in the Houston, TX area.

Off-Topic but I also ordered 2 lightning docs just released a few days ago from apple and they are in transit now.

Blue or Brown?
 
Waiting for my 4/28 42 mm SS LL large brown.

I wonder how the LL holds on against sweat or water. Has anyone taken the LL for a run yet?

It's leather, you shouldn't really get it wet. I would not run with mine, and that's why I got a black sport band for when I want to use the watch for working out.

It's fine for day-to-day use, though. A little sweat from living won't kill the band, same as any other leather watch strap.
 
Finally!!! My Medium Brown LL shipped! I was beginning to get worried. But I really can't complain.... estimated shipping date was correct, even early (May 29 - June 11, ordered 4/10)
 
I'm in the UK and ordered a medium dark brown leather loop (strap only, already have the watch) on 1st May. My delivery estimate is 22nd - 28th May so they have until Thursday to fulfil this. Currently, it's still processing and I haven't seen any charges on my card yet.
 
Ordered a 42mm med blue leather loop on the 13th. I had the June 22-June 29 window, but just got the email that it will arrive on May 27th. Great way to finish the MDWeekend!

Awesome! Are you in the States? I ordered the same configuration on the 17th but I still show delivery as 6/22-6/29... Happy to hear you're getting your watch soon! Keep us posted!

Yea I'm in Jersey. I can't even begin to express how happy that stupid little Apple Store notification made me. I have an Apple Store a block from my work... I won't divulge how many times I walked in there and stared at what I didn't have.

Now I'm just waiting on the hoco stainless band.

I'm almost as excited as you! I have to believe I'll be soon... right??? Lol
 
It's been an eventful evening for me!

Ordered the SS BLL (Medium) on April 11th (I'm from BC, Canada)

Noticed at around 8pm that my order status changed from June 25- July 2nd to June 29th to July 7th. Went on Apple Store Chat to ask about the delay but they didn't have any information for me.

Immediately after the chat I noticed that my credit card had a pending transaction. I went ahead and refreshed the store order page several times and at 10 pm noticed that it's now changed to Preparing for Shipment!

Anyone know how soon it is from Preparing for Shipment to Arrival for Canadian Orders?

Same situation, Black Medium Leather Loop (band only) ordered on 28th April and have same delivery window as you. Still at Processing.

Oddly if you go to order a new Leather Loop from the UK online store right now it says 1-2 weeks for delivery, so there must be a shipment due soon...

Had the same estimated delivery date so decided to contact Store Support too and they said there is nothing to be done as I originally had an estimate of July .

That's because I ordered it on the 9th of May, because I wanted it to come late on purpose.. Just not this late. I was hoping for a 9 - 10 June delivery date :D
 
Ordered a large black loop on 4/17 had June window for awhile, then a 6/22-6/29 window, just turned to PFS yesterday with a 6/19-6/26 window.

PFS!!!!! #
 
Apple tried charging me last night (are the even open Memorial Day?) and I dnt have the funds at the moment

"Unfortunately, your bank has declined payment for the credit/debit card you provided and we have been unable to process your order."

Awaiting Payment
Available to ship: 4 - 5 weeks
Delivers: 24 Jun, 2015 - 30 Jun, 2015 by Standard Shipping
