Anyone else feel their digital crown is a bit stiff? I got mine Wednesday and am truly tickled for the most part. I go back and forth on the band, though. I like it--I don't know if I $150 like it like it, but I like it.
My crown seemed a bit stiff at first but it has loosened up. I was a little frustrated at first, because every time I tried to zoom in on the icons, it wouldn't hold. Seems to be working better now.
Same here on the band. I wonder if it cost more than $20 to make them...
;)
 
Thats awesome man! Hopefully mine will ship out today!!! This has been all I have been thinking about :D:D:D:D


Lemme tell you.... I literally just looked at it and it hadn't shipped so I was all here like "wtf". Texted my friend about my watch not shipping.

Two minutes later, I refresh the page and it says SHIPPED.

COULDN'T BE HAPPIER!! Thank you!

My tracking info still isn't showing on UPS' site yet though.

I hope yours ships soon!

No I didn't I've literally been refreshing so often I get it within minutes of the status changing. I haven't even gotten my shipped email yet lol

They must be a lag when the status changes and when the emails send out. Just out of curiosity, did they charge your credit/debit card before preparing for shipment? Thanks!

It was a gift card and I honestly wasn't checking when they checked it

So glad to hear so many are seeing shipping success with this model. We all owe OP a beer!!

Subdiv, you mentioned that your digital crown "wouldn't hold" and I think that's what I'm experiencing. It's almost feels like a rubber band pulling back slightly.--especially on a small flick of the crown. The icons would bounce back to their previous position. I tried the water trick, so make that will help, or maybe it will just loosen up with time as yours did. I remember distinctly the SS I tried in the Apple Store felt "like butter", and I described it as such to the Apple rep in comparison to the Sport. Mine takes quite a bit more pressure to make it move.

As for the watch itself, I've become quite attached to it in just three days. Kinda nutty.
 
Loving my new toy :D

Yikes. UPS dropped the ball big time.

Called my local UPS this morning as I had it scheduled to deliver today and wanted to pick it up at the store. They said that would be fine, put me on hold, and after what seemed like a million years, came back only to tell me that it had not made it to NY and had not had a physical scan (even though my tracking said it had) since it got to Kentucky.

After talking to 3 more people, and apple twice, it's been confirmed to be lost. The phone number associated had been edited to 12345678 and my number taken off the package.

Someone's losing their job today.

Exactly. Also, sometimes when I use the crown to zoom, the icons zoom back out a little even though I haven't let go of it. Other than that, everything seems fine.
 
Ordered yesterday shipped today

I ordered the 38 mm SS with Black classic buckle around 2:00 pm on the 7th, it charged to my card last night, and shipped around noon today! I should have it on Monday. Still waiting on modern buckle to process.
