Correction: apparently that is my Phone NOT the AW. Keep checking UPS My choice - it just showed up this morning. I was checking to see when my phone case would arrive and saw the watch.

One of the two phones that addressed to the same house is showing up in My Choice. Coming from AI. Weight is 0.4 KGS. Delivery for September 20th. If the weight is showing less than 0.4 KGS then it’s probably your watch.
I definitely will. From my past experiences of Pre-ordering multiple Apple Watches and iPhones in the past, I’ve noticed that it could take as long as until tomorrow night sometime to show up in My Choice.
It seem everyone order Titanium Milanese my ship by October 9 rest band pick up on release date. ..
You didn't ask me, but I chose the black ultra because of the color vs. slate and I'm coming from an Ultra, so I'm use to it. Also, don't necessarily want a super thin watch.
You didn’t ask me, but I’ve had a Space Black S0, a Space Black S4, and then a Graphite S8. I never liked the color as much as liked the Space Black, and I was already on the fence as to getting an Ultra that year but chose not to, because I didn’t like that color.
So now that there’s a black Ultra, I felt like it’d be great to have a color that I like better, and also actually has some features that I’m not used to getting, like battery life and the action button.
My Apple Card was hit for the full amount today. I called Goldman Sachs and had them convert it to monthly installments.
Preparing to ship and full CC charge today. Also showing up in UPS myChoice coming from Indiana shipping with next day air. So I expect it will sit there till Wednesday night or Thursday morning.
I am doing Store pick up so missing out in the fun of following My UPS account 😞Even my GS Apple card has not been charged yet, but I remember last year people stated that if they did store pick up their card was not charged till then. So I will just patiently wait till Thursday or Friday when I get the email confirming my check in time on Friday. I do really wish that Gold Link Band would show available to order.
Since IPhone 11 I have gotten a new Pro Max every year and this is the first year I am keeping my 15PM so missing out on that fun too of following my phone. But looking forward to getting the new Titanium Gold, trading my SS series 7. Las year got the SS series 9 graphite. I alternate watches daily depending on my mood but my series 7 SS is very heavy compared to last years so looking forward to the bit lighter weight watch.

I'm a runner - both half and full marathons, so the extra battery life works best for me. I also rotate watches, so the Hermes is a nice alternative.
If I order online for in store pickup, can I still trade in at the store on release day or do I have to mail the trade in? That’s the only thing holding me back from doing a preorder. I’d likely get an aluminum series 10 with the basic sport band so it’s not a rare combo or anything
Finally charged for one of my In Store Pickup watches! Still waiting on one, two phones and two AirPods.
Is there a chance that I’ll receive my Apple Watch way before these expected dates? I see some are receiving their Apple Watches on the day of release or shortly after, unfortunately, it seems that I may have to wait two to three months after release to receive it. I also preordered an iPhone 16 pro max and the expected delivery for that is October 1st. I wouldn’t mind receiving my watch first week of October along with my iphone, but waiting months after release is a bit of a stretch.

I'd rather do store pickup as delivery pushed availability from Friday to Monday and with UPS it's hit and miss. Half the time they don't bother driving up the street as drivers have too many stops assigned and then it usually ends up stuck in requesting re-delivery for a couple days. They did that with my previous watch as well and I had to go through Apple who called up a UPS rep and conferenced me in to re-arrange delivery as their support hung up on me every time.
Unfortunately I am travelling around launch day so I am just hoping to find the watch waiting for me once I get home. Writing this I just realized Apple doesn't require a pick-up on the same day and keeps the watch for a few days so I should have just sent it to the store after all. Oh well. No way to change it now as it's already preparing to ship and a re-order has an expected delivery date in October.
There's a chance - but nobody can predict with any degree of accuracy how much of a chance, or how much sooner.
Your order delay is caused by the choice of band. I suggest you cancel your order and place a new one for the same watch with a different band for pick-up on launch day on Friday. Order the band you actually want separately, I checked and it's available for a separate order though it will likely ship in November as well. I placed my pre-order with a simple sports band as well to avoid delays.
I ordered my gold titanium 42mm watch right after the Apple Event on Monday with a 9/20 shipment date. It's been "Preparing to Ship" for a few days and I don't see it in my UPS Choice at all. I was charged for the watch on 9/11 too. I'm guessing my watch is in the states already?

Thank you for your advice. I just now did that, and will have the watch 6 days from now, it’s better than waiting 3 months. Lol Only downside is I had to choose the S/M band to get in on launch day when M/L is a preferance for me and won’t be available until mid October. S/M band would only leave me 0.5 inches of space left for my wrist, but it still should fit nicely.

I ordered a Series 10 for pickup on launch with my 16 Pro Max, but now I’m regretting the Watch purchase. I was tired of the bulk of Ultra, but I’m very turned off looking at videos from the hands-on event because Series 10 looks so close to Series 4-9 that the press were wearing/comparing to.
I’ll probably cancel my Series 10… At least Ultra design hasn’t been the same pebble look forever that I got tired of in the first place.
