If you guys all have the 13th-27th May then I must be the first in the world with my 12th-26th May 42mm SS Link order.....unless someone knows different :)

You are not in the U.S. I would bet north Europe.

Or are you making a joke? I can't tell in these threads anymore. Either way you're in the same boat with the rest of us. :)
 
Seems so weird that this combination of SS and a link bracelet is getting delayed when you can get the same items in separate orders quicker.

Slightly bonkers release.

On the bright side, my charger has just changed to preparing for shipment! At least something, right?
 
why advertise the SS 42 link, which is one of the most expensive options, on the apple website (front page) and all over TV, etc. and not have that version available at launch? bummed
 
I ordered a link bracelet separately and got a 4/29-5/12 delivery window.

No movement yet but I'm not expecting much till next week or later.
 
Bump.... Anyone seeing a charge or shift to preparing for shipment? Saw in other threads that some in the 4-6 window ordering the sport watches were getting them Friday.

Not me, at least. Something tells me that this link bracelet is a very "special" model. No charge, no change in status. I can't figure out why there were no orders available for the release of the watch.
 
No movement on my 42mm SS Link (silver) ordered 8:10 with a 4-6 week estimate in the UK.
 
I'll be honest, the title of the thread is confusing and is derailing this discussion.

Are we talking about just the link bracelet orders here (separate from the watch body), or the Apple Watch with Link Bracelet as a combo bought together?

Seems like some people think it's for either, so we're not really going to get a consensus on either as people are answering whatever they think the question is, which may be different from what it actually is.

Basically, someone needs to clarify what exactly we are talking about here, and then we can get a clearer picture of what is going on.
 
No change in the 38mm SS watch w/ Link bracelet (ordered 3:02am EST Friday)
No change in the separate order of link bracelet (ordered two days later when I saw the actual watch with Link was LONGER than just ordering the link bracelet on its own).

I ordered a 38mm Milanese and figured I'd just buy the extra link bracelet then cancel the shipment of the watch when the link shipped. Milanese changed to preparing for shipment last night. I ordered it after the Link watch.

Yeah, does seem strange that the higher end watch (link) was from the start delayed. But a lot of the press received them. And the bracelet on its own has a faster ship time. I keep hoping they will change it and ship with the rest. I'll be sure to post here if so.
 
Good point. I assumed this was for the whole watch. Mine is 42 SS link. Ordered 3:02. 4-6 weeks. May 13-27.
 
Ordered the link bracelet only (got the 42 SS BSB separately) at 12:08 Pacific. Order still processing but showing available to ship in 2-4 weeks, and delivers Apr 29 - May 12.
