Watch Ultra 3 pre-order - anyone still "processing"?

[AnInanimateCarbonRod]

I pre-ordered a black Ultra 3 + AirPods Pro 3 immediately after the event on Tuesday with a 9/19 delivery on both, but my order status hasn't changed from "processing". I saw quite a few people on other threads saying theirs moved to "preparing to ship" from Thursday onward, but it seems like I'm stuck/fallen behind. I haven't seen any authorization reach my credit card yet, either.

Anyone else in the same boat as me? Not sure if geography matters, but I'm in Canada.

Remain calm. If it says delivery for 19th Sept, you’ll get it on the 19th. You don’t need to watch the order page refreshing every 5 minutes. This isn’t Apple’s first release day for a range of products - they have it under control.

If it helps, I'm also in Canada and ordered the same two products but on different orders. My black Ultra 3 has been preparing to ship since Wednesday but the AirPods Pro 3 are still at processing with no charge from my CC for those yet.

I'm not panicking, don't worry - just curious. I'm used to seeing at least the credit card charge a little sooner than now.

Interesting - I did them as the same order. I wonder if that's making the difference.

Also in Canada. Ordered AW11 and AirPods Pro 3 on the 9th as separate orders. The AW11 moved to "preparing for shipment" within 30 mins of placing the order. AirPods Pro 3 are still on "processing".

If it says on the 19th, it will very likely come on the 19th.
