No one has answered so far when the forums started...anyone have an idea?
Looks like some time in August 2002, ish?

Holy crap, 13 pages to catch up on since last night.

Accidentally ordered an AW Ultra to replace my SS AW6 which has been faultless and I've done some pretty gnarly stuff wearing it. In contrast to wife and daughter #2 who have scratched their AL Watches doing the most mundane things. Given the second hand values and the fact I have a black leather Hermes strap for smart occasions I will hang on to the old watch for sleep tracking and wearing out.
 
Honestly didn’t expect Space Black to be more popular than Deep Purple given the latter is a new colour and the one used in a lot of promo shots. I seem to remember back when the 12 Pro/Pro Max was released that Pacific Blue was more popular than the “standard colours”.
 
any way to try their chat function for help?

Thanks so much @Jinjin after several attempts to bypass the MM chatbot I eventually got through to MM human. Annoyingly the chatbot is set up with limited options to choose and only at a one point do they let you type anything in!

Anyway they tried to help me get my password reset unsuccessfully (suggested all the same stuff as here on cache etc) and they couldn't push through the saved quote so I asked that they extend my trade in date on my original order placed on 29/8 and they agreed to extend by 7 days. I think only because I couldn't get into my account but this is the best result because that is the order I applied the UPGRADE22 code to so am back up to £585 trade in price (all things going well at inspection). Phew!

I photographed the chat screen on the 7 days extension for proof!

It’s the first time since buying iPhones that i’ve not gone with the new, “highlight” colour of the new iPhone and went with Space Black myself even though I know that’s still technically a new colour (sort of), it’s not the main colour being pushed.
 
I’ve just tried and got the live weather and a photo of my boy on the home screen

I meant the live weather screen on the Lock Screen, and one of the default images on the Home Screen - the way around this is to download an image of the Lock Screen, then set that as a photo

I jumped on the Pacific Blue for my 12 Pro and to be honest I went off the colour after a few months. I've gone for Space Black this time, colour obviously isn't for me!
 
I don’t know the situation but all I know is come Friday a lotta sh*t gonna go down on this thread when the gluttonous retail corporations let a lot of the people down
 
Hopefully they aren't sending you a iPhone 13 Pro instead!
Genuinely had this thought as well but surely there’s no way 🤣

Still I’m convinced that it’s just a notification but they won’t release the package to DPD until Thursday evening

Mind you I’m in agony trying to decide between 14 pro and 14 pro max maybe this is the sign I needed from the Apple gods if I get the 14 pro early it’s a sign 😂
 
So tempted to return my midnight leather for the elderberry silicone...

The only thing stopping me is that its silicone, had it for my 12pro and it was just a dust magnet for a few weeks before it got oily, plus always felt the leather had that added protection

decisions!

Elderberry on a Gold 14 Pro
Or midnight leather on a Gold 14 Pro...

Both?

Just did that. Go to customise on the Lock Screen, select the weather one, then click add: in the popup, select "Customise Home Screen" not "set as wallpaper pair". You can then choose a different background for the Home Screen to the one you're using on the Lock Screen.
