I ordered a white PM 512gb and my spouse has a black PM 512gb and both are showin in MyChoice as of this morning.
I have a Black 512GB Pro on the way. No MyChoice activity yet. Is there a reason MyChoice may not pick up the tracking number (assuming the label has been created at this point)?
 
I have something from AI arriving from China on 9/20 that weighs .88 lbs - is this my watch or phone? It showed up in UPS My Choice. My phone says PTS and the watch still says In Progress.

The name on the shipment must match, not just the address. This time, for carrier orders via Apple.com, they pulled the shipping address and the recipient name from carriers' billing. Not saying it's what happened in your case, just something to check on.

Not this year. Shipped it to work and can’t register the address because it’s a business address and MyChoice is only for residential addresses. That’s why I’m so obsessed with tracking via reference number. Haha.
Shows up tracking by reference for me, but also is in mychoice.

Won’t show up if I use my phone number as the reference number but shows up when I use the order number without the last 2 numbers as a reference number

Interesting thing to note this year: I'm not seeing any UPS flights between CGO and SZX, ICN, or ANC for the coming week. It could be awhile before they move off the Chinese mainland.

Including a photo of how I fill out the form to get it, in case it helps.

Estimated Delivery Oct 7-14. 16pm Natural 256. Anyone have experience of it coming sooner than the estimated date?
Yes, it seems every year there are reports here of orders arriving earlier than expected. You may notice next week that the delivery moves forward - not guaranteed but that even happened with an early series watch order I placed.

apparently the phones that are coming from China are registering at .4KGS so that would be my phone that is showing up in UPS and not the watch. The watch maybe stateside already

Just curious. What did you order?
 
How do we search by reference number again?
You go to UPS website and search for track by reference. The reference number will sometimes be your phone number and other times a portion of your Apple Order number. It's been a few years since I had to use that for tracking....someone here can correct me.
