Ordered my 38mm Classic Leather Buckle about 3 hours ago (12:30PM PST). Will update if I see any progress over the next few days!

just to give you an idea, i jumped on the bandwagon a little too late, and it took a full extra day then it took the people in the begining.... i would imagine you will be getting your watch on friday if you received a shipping window....

just my hunch

You ordered 4/30 in the evening, and just saw movement today, right?
 
I ordered the 42mm SS ML on April 10 (10 minutes after it opened) Apple Mailed it from KY to CA overnight on April 27, delivered April 28 by 1:00pm

Why isn't anyone paying attention to this? This would be the first 42 mm SS Milanese loop to ship ordering this late, as far as I can see. Let's see a copy of the order!

Especially considering I ordered the same model 8 minutes after and it's been in processing he'll ever since. Apple CS rep says they had a $1 auth charge on my card but I haven't seen anything other than the full charge for a sport 38mm white band ordered 12 minutes after on the 10h and we received that one on the 24th same day I was charged for it.
 
when will this agony of preparing to ship end.... i just want a date....

i even made arrangements to have my neighbor hang out in my apartment monday night because there will be a 25 minute window no one will be home...
 
Charge ... Prepare.... Ship... The shipped status took about 3 hours after the prepare to ship status.
 
Oh and after it shipped... I didn't get a date from ups until next morning as it just didn't show up on tracking but apple gave me the date through email and it was next day
 
This thread is making me want to place an order and just order the modern buckle when it is available instead of waiting until July!
 
Yay!! I'm preparing for shipment as well. I got charged for AppleCare this afternoon about 2 PM EST. Funny thing is my credit card has a pending charge for both the watch and AppleCare since I placed my order on the 30th. The last I checked, my Amex still has a charge for both the AppleCare care and the full amount of the watch and the AppleCare. Is that weird?

There is no downside to doing that. If you do, when you receive the classic buckle watch and want the modern buckle, just contact Apple for a band exchange. You can wear and enjoy the watch and when you receive the modern buckle you can then send the classic back. I'm pretty sure that is what I'm going to do. I ordered the watch on May 1 and it is preparing to ship on May 2.
