The email delivery time could vary on a lot of things. The emails could be queued outbound on one of apples busy servers, could be queued inbound on a spam gateway of mail server. email time is really not a great indicator of order time when you get down to the seconds or a few minutes.

Agree, but there is not much else to go on.
 
Well I think there won't be any saturday deliveries.
Confirmation 3:05 EST
Got charged yesterday (24th) 10:15PM EST
Preparing for shipment 1 hour later 11:22PM
Its now 8:03AM EST, im from Ontario, CAN and still did not get any shipping information so I guess people who got charged last night will only get it by monday...hopefully
8:54 EST status changed to shipping... Maybe i'll ne getting mine today#
 
So, I STILL have the charge on my CC from Thursday but my watch has not moved from Processing. Very annoying.

42 SS BSB - 3:03:25 am EDT confirmation on 4/10 - Georgia - Processing - Received EOD - CC charged 5:15 am 4/23 - No UPS tracking
 
4/10 3:03am EDT SS 42mm BSB:

Just received CC charge around 10:15pm EDT Friday with Preparibg for Shipment around 11pm.

I live in NoVA near Dulles airport
 
Just an update for those who are interested. I'm in Canada and was charged yesterday at 10:07 EDT for 42 SS BSB. Confirmation initially came in at 3:05am EDT on 10th. I just received my shipping notification from Apple indicating watch would be delivered on Wednesday the 29th.

Seems like a bit of time to wait. Do you think these new watches are being shipped directly from China?
 
Mine went into "Preparing to Ship" overnight. 42mm SS BSB ordered at 3:02am

I think they still do credit card charge over the weekend, but shipping is probably not until the Week day, I could be wrong

if i understand corect they will charge your account/CC when they move it to "preparing to ship" I finally got changed to that overnight and when I checked my bank account this morning throught there app it has the 634.94 being process on 4/28 which goes with the thinking that they only charge you when it ships. The charge we see when it changes to "preparing to ship" seems like it is just a hold on the funds for the account/CC. Im not expecting to have other changes untill tuesday. Which is when i think ill recive a shipping email and tracking number

edit: buddy of mine who got a 42SS milanese was charged/changed to preparing to ship on monday this past week and only got the emil/shipping info on tuesday
 
42mm SSBSB Colorado

I am definitely down the list. Email confirmation at 00:15:07am. Apple chat says the have me down as ordering it at 03:56:00am
 
Just got a tracking number for my shipment that changed to preparing last night sometime. Tracking number doesn't work yet.

Edit: delivers Wednesday

You can most likely track by reference using your phone number.

I have the tracking number, it just says:

The action you selected is unavailable at this time.

This can happen if UPS systems are busy, or if a shipping label has been created but UPS has not yet received package details.

Did you receive the email from Apple to get the tracking number? Mine that switched to Shipping last night says a 29th delivery.

Mine too, I'm in London Ont. What did the email say from Apple? Shipping for the 29th? That's what mine said.

Yes, mine is the 29th as well. My earlier post was off the apple alert on my iPhone which didn't say a date. I hadn't noticed the email then.
