Bah! I'm from Ontario and a Bruins fan. First time in 8 years we didn't make the playoffs. *sigh*
GO TAMPA BAY!!
13 minutes after - I remember now the Apple Store webpage was down until :07 and I had to use it because I had a $150 gift card. So, when the SS Link watches showed 2-4 weeks I went to look at the other models to see the wait times.

I feel ya, San Jose Sharks fan here... I won't say much else. Lol
It's just killing me inside knowing that my watch is out for delivery and I'm stuck at work til 5! I think I know what I'll be doing on my lunch break! Lol
Question to all. Had you known that we would be going through this aggravation, on April 10 as you ordered the SS Link Watch, would you have ordered a "cheap" Sport as well to have it on 4/24 and start playing with it sooner? Based on our times, we all could easily have had one by now.
When I saw the long ship time I ordered the watch with a sport band to have it on day one. Then ordered the link band separate.
Smart. I should have done that too. So I assume you are feeling less aggravation than the rest of us.
Yeah I'm feeling a lot less aggravated. I've had time to play around with it but pretty excited to get the link band today.
To be fair, people already knew that when they saw 4-6 week shipping at the start of preorder, and some did go that route (or get a different SS model and ordered the link bracelet separately).
I'm not that desperate so I didn't bother, and I didn't want the hassle of having to sell the Sport.
I feel your pain - mine has a delivery window of 12:45 - 16:45. I have to leave for the airport at 1:30... not back until late Thursday. The thought of it possibly sitting at home for two days while I am away is, well, stressful
But after what we have been through the last few weeks, I guess I can handle it
Had I known I would have ordered the SS Link watch on 4/10 instead of ordering the SS Milanese loop watch at xx:03 and then canceling it on 4/12. Consequently ordering the SS LInk watch on 4/18. I could have had the Link watch now instead of June!
Very true. Not sure why I didn't think of that then. People are selling their order positions on ebay so I don't think you'd have any trouble getting rid of the Sport.
Had to get a steering wheel shot.... The second hand of course matching the GMC logo! Loving it so far!!!! Hope to see more of your orders fulfilled today! Thanks for keeping me entertained through the wait!

I simply didn't want the hassle, although it may be easy to sell. A 4 week wait isn't that long compared to a year cycle anyway.
