I just got charged for this one the SS with BCB. I assume I will get it on Monday or Tuesday then :). Does anyone know if I can then request a band swap to the black sports band and get 100 dollars back?

I ordered it at 5/1 11:30 am EST

I don't think they'll give money back. There's a discussion about that elsewhere on here. It would be cool if they did. Or Apple Store credit or something.
 
38mm SS CB ordered on May 1st at 11:30am.

Apple just asked for an updated credit card as the one I had didn't have enough credit left on it. It could just be a preauthirization, but the last time this happened, the item shipped soon after.

UPDATE: preparing for shipment.

I was a the jewelry store today looking at Citizen Ecodrive watches today. Not sure if I'm really sold on the Apple watch. Decisions...decisions...

I'm new to MR but I decided to jump on this bandwagon since the 38mm SG didn't ship on time for my birthday. Not surprised, but it would nice to have a watch sometime soon. :)

Ordered 5/2 at 12:37 DFW, TX

Here's hoping to movement!
 
Preparing for shipment here too! As Oprah would say...YOU get a watch...and YOU get a watch. EVERYBODY gets a watch!!!

:D:D:D
 
Whoa! I ordered this puppy (38mm SS BCB) on the evening of 4/30 and it just got charged and is now in PFS! I do have a 42mm SS BSB received on the 29th, but I'm thinking it's too big.... Canceled a 38mm SS WSB, um my order status page is a mess :-\.
 
Ordered a 42 SGSB 4/10 @ 02:04:08
Charged 4/26 received 4/28

Ordered 38 SSBCB 5/1 approximately 7:30 pm CST
Charged 5/2 @ 12:30 pm and preparing to ship.

WOOHOO!!! I may just get this in time for my wife for Mother's Day gift!!!
She likes the SS but not the BCB so much but figure she can get by until I can get her a Milanese loop.
 
Preparing for shipmenT!!!!

I just did a lap around my showroom floor announcing it.

Canceled my white sport

I'm leaving the white sport. My son (birthday gift recipient) prefers it and it's cheaper.

Let's see when it ships. He may want this one too much to wait.

Indeed, thanks to the OP - ordered 38mm SS BCB on 4/30, received last night :) South Texas here.

BTW - online chatted w Apple rep this morning, was told that I could swap out the band for a sport but not for modern (the one I actually wanted). They would refund the cost difference (which in this case would be $100). Have 14 days from receipt of watch to initiate exchange. I may do this - would like a sport band for sure, and could buy a modern once it actually becomes available (might've a nice Christmas gift).
 
Wow I'm so happy, THANKS OP :D:D

JOYFUL! JOYFUL! WE ARE JOYFUL!!!!!!

Sweet! I'm gonna do the same.
 
Question...does everyone on this thread really like the Classic Buckle or just did since it's the fastest? I really just wanted the Sport Band...here's to hoping it's really worth $100 more.
 
Me too!! I saw someone got charged on Facebook and checked mine. Preparing for shipment!

Are you in the FB Apple Watch group? :)

We needed fast watches. Looks like we can swap bands.
 
Damn, too bad the 38mm is too small for my wrist or I would be all over this. I could definitely deal with a black classic buckle for sure. I wish Apple would speed up production on the 42mm models.
