Watch with Stainless Steel Link Bracelet Orders

I ordered a white sport band. Says it'll deliver in May. I bet that one arrives early.
Both our watches are coming Friday.
I can confirm, after looking this morning, the charge on my credit card is categorized as "Temporary Authorization." This has deflated my hopes! And to think I was tossing and turning all last night out of excitement. Damn you Apple!
My wife's watch is in the ups system as scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Her process started Monday and the charge on my Barclaycard is still showing as pending.
My 42 SS link got charged yesterday, still shown as processing and also has the pending charge on the same card.
My 42 SS Link - Charged, but no status changed
My Gift Card was charged on Wednesday evening, but no email or order status change.
As of Thursday morning the money has not been returned to the gift card, but still no email or order status change.

42 Stainless Steel with Link Bracelet.
42 SS link. 3:02 order. 4-6 weeks. No charge. No preparing to ship. And no email of death either. #
So is this thread the official SS LinkWatch order thread or just the Link Bracelet? I'm confused
Yes
Same boat. If I would have just bought the SS with Sport and a SS Link separately I would have one tomorrow!!!
Same for me. Ordered separate black sport band for running. Link for work.

I think most of the charges were just temporary again. I know mine, and at least one other person (somewhere back through this forum) had the charge again disappear from our cards. Not sure what that means exactly, but I don't know that I'd completely write off next Friday delivery.
I hope you're right. I'm hoping once they get through the launch shipping they can ramp up the Link Bracelet production and get our watches out of processing in one big batch!
Still nothing on my end. Order is still processing, and no charges on my CC. I have a feeling that this is the end of the line for any launch day arrivals for our watch. I find it hard to believe that those of us who haven't gotten charged yet, will get charged, get a "preparing to ship"/"shipping" status, all within 12 hours. I highly doubt Apple has been holding our watches in a warehouse in the U.S. and are just waiting til afternoon today to start processing orders.
I could be wrong, but I'm just trying to be as realistic as possible. We have until tonight to maybe see any updates.
For reference, I got charged for my girlfriend's 38mm SS Classic Buckle on Monday and this morning I got a shipping notification and tracking #. Both were ordered at 2:03CST on April 10th and are going to the same address, which is why I think my watch won't arrive in time. No reason why they shouldn't be together or at least gotten shipping notices in the same time frame.
42mm SS Link is what I ordered if anyone is wondering.

Was your SS link the Space Black one?
Haven't seen anyone with SS Space black link being charged or moved forward yet.
The only thing keeping 5% of my hope alive for tomorrow is, like you said, yesterday's movement. I'm sure the people that have gotten charged for it will receive it tomorrow. Apple ever only charges you if your item is going to ship. I'm assuming that was just a small batch of finished Link watches and a very lucky few are going to be getting em, y'all have to remember not everyone who ordered a watch is on these forums.
I'd love it if we got the watches next week, maybe Wednesday or Friday, but I'm trying to be as realistic as possible because I'm tired of checking and checking and hoping and hoping lol. Can't keep being this anxious all the way until May.
The logical equation asked was "Is it A Or B" and the logical answer is yes, it is A or B. Not C.
In other words, welcome to the Internet, where everyone's a smart ass...
