Shipping requires two business days, so it should be Monday. Although, some are getting Wednesday as estimates, but I really can't see it being that long.

Most places don't consider sat and sun as business days. All the times I've preordered or bought from Apple, they've always sent it Next Day Air. I'll Just be happy when processing goes away.

I double checked with Apple on the phone, and they confirmed Saturday is indeed a business day.
 
Agree on the ranges. I know Apple wants maximum flexibility to "under promise, over deliver" but this time it didn't work.

When you slip to 4-6 week delivery at roughly 6 minutes into the process and you were less than that when you submitted the order, something's wrong with the system.

Now that we know to have everything prepped and set for payment and home delivery (no more in-store pickups) can you imagine the server load in first 2 minute of future launches.

Apple has officially said that this launch is not the way they will be happening in the future and instead this is a one time deal.
 
My confirmation number is time stamped 3:09:19 AM Eastern even though I ordered around 3:04- 3:05.... I just hope more dates start moving soon. Seems like it's taking a long time to take care of :03 people. :mad:


U.S., processing, no emails after the first one.

I ordered around 3:06 and my email was stamped 3:09:50 and this is also confirmed with the Apple Rep. that I spoke to.

However, I got into the 4-6 week range, which honestly doesn't make sense, but I'm going to assume that it won't matter anymore if we're going by :0X (Number/time).
 
XX:06. SF, CA

It's weird but I have accepted this will have no movement for a while.

No way my watch is here Monday or Tuesday if I'm still processing today. I think most orders will come the first week of May :(

Pretty much right after I accepted that I was never ever getting an apple watch it went to shipping :)
 
Any word on the pink sport 42mm and any suggestions on which 42mm sport I can order instead and get the fastest.
 
I got my shipping confirmation at 5:33am PST. Says delivers by April 29th. I bet it comes in a day or two earlier. Can't track with UPS yet since it is so new.

42ss bsb. 12:02 confirmation. Canada.

2:06:27 AM CDT but I believe I submitted way before that time... Oh well. So what documentation is there where Apple said they're never shipping like this again?

Also, who's keeping track of all these U.S. Times now that everyone is listing when they received the confirmation emails? Google sheet?

Ahrendts told employees that she'll be providing updates on supply on a week by week basis, and she asked retail employees to prepare to help customers who will be receiving a pre-ordered Apple Watch in the near future. Ahrendts also once again confirmed that the Apple Watch launch is a unique situation and not reflective of Apple's launch plans going forward. "We love our launches we do in stores," she said. "Have absolutely no fear, this is a unique situation."
 
Was one of the first in the U.S. to get charged and prepared for shipping last night. Meanwhile everyone else got their a lot later and is already preparing to ship. Really wanted to pick it up today but guess I won't be able to until Monday since they're closed tomorrow

I got into the same 4-6 week range but I think we'll get it before that going by all the posts here.
 
I went to go order one and there was no option for a left-hand or a right-hand watch and I would like to order one for my left hand but where is the option please help. Thanks
