I have not seen this thread posted, so I thought I'd do so. Mods feel free to delete if there is a plan to put up a similar thread.
 
Here's what I'm getting on launch day. Have my Ultra 1, but it's time to change, I think.

I was hoping to see a thread like this. I ordered an S10 natural Ti with link bracelet just after announcement and got 8 - 15 Oct delivery window.

For some stupid reason, unbeknownst to Apple, my Apple Store App on my iPhone will not let me make a purchase using monthly installments. I used to be able to. I can do that using apple.com on the Mac, but it's much nicer, and faster, to be able to make the purchase on the iPhone. I can make a full price purchase using the Apple Store App for the iPhone and then call Goldman Sachs to convert it to monthly installments after the charge hits, but the details do not show up in the Wallet that way.
 
If I ordered today, the 46mm slate titanium would deliver October 2-9, but available for pickup at the local Apple store on September 20.

If Apple is still using UPS for US deliveries, you can track it by having a UPS My Choice account. I think the basic account is still free, but feel free to chime in if that's not the case.

I ordered a S10 42mm in natural titanium. Trading in my S7SS. I really wanted another SS or at least a silver titanium. I really don't like the color of the natural titanium on the phone. I will probably be sending it back after I see it or maybe trading for the slate titanium??? I don't want to go back to aluminum due to scratches.
 
Anyone in the US know if the watches are shipping from China this year, or if they already have them stateside? If they aren't already here, when do we think they will start showing up in UPS MyChoice?
 
Former drummer here. My wrists are big-boned and they are not fat. My wrist size blows away the Apple measuring tool and is about 229mm. I am currently wearing the only Apple Watch band that is XL sized - the black Sport Band. I'm going to try the Lake Green watch band. It may just fit in the last hole. I'm in the second tightest hole in the XL band.

I ordered a 42mm Natural Titanium with a denim sport band. (I don't really need another band, but what can you do?) I'm trading in my old Series 4 that I've had since launch day; the battery is failing, and it was a struggle getting through the summer, but knowing that S10 Launch Day was coming up helped so much. Truly a first world problem.

My order is supposed to be delivered on Sept 20; on Sept 21, I'll probably find out that I've got sleep apnea. :)
 
Ordered 42mm silver aluminum, cellular, with ink sport loop. Trading in my SE they gave me $80 for it which paid for applecare. Will also be cancelling applecare on the old SE to get some of the $50 back im cheap lol
 
Just ordered my 46mm titanium with black magnetic loop. Any chance they change the ship date to before October 1st?
 
46mm Jet Black on the way, estimated 9/20! I went with the blue flame Nike sport band for launch. Also grabbed a backordered Pride braided solo loop that'll hopefully show up by the end of October.

This is replacing my Series 4... it's only a little overdue. Probably skipping the iPhone upgrade this year, so hopefully this covers my thirst for novelty. Ha.
 
I was initially thinking a 46mm S10 Aluminum in Jet Black would be fine but after having an original launch Stainless Steel and then a Series 4 Space Black Stainless Steel the last 6 years, I knew the "sport" aluminum watch would not hold up. The SBSS Series 4 was bulletproof with the discontinued DLC coating that is unfortunately not offered anymore. And the sport aluminum watch has an inferior ion-x glass to the Ultra/Stainless now Titanium model Sapphire Crystal faces, and I suspect that Jet Black casing won't hold up that great.

BUT I wasn't sure I wanted the S10 in Slate Gray either, so I made the jump to the Ultra 2 in Satin Black w Black Milanese band. I figure if I don't like it I return it for the Slate Gray S10. Only concern is whether it will be too bulky. Loving the prospect of the much longer battery life.

I ordered the Titanium 42mm Gold Titanium, would have ordered with the Gold Link Titanium Bracelet but it was not available yet. So I ordered the Black Sport Loop. I am trading a S7 SS Gold, I also still have the S9 SS Graphite.
The new Titanium watch I decided to do In Store pick up, usually I have it delivered but thought this would be a good time to see the new phones in person. I decided against getting a new phone this year and decided to keep my 15pm.

Charges for my watches hit my Apple Card about 45 minutes ago, and one of the two watches bumped up to Preparing to Ship. Waiting for them to show up in MyChoice. Would they fool with us and ship them via FedEx?
