However well intentioned this comment was, this thread is about the 42mm SS BSB, not the 42mm Sport BSB, and only serves to distract people still in the :03 mark who have not received their tracking info.
Got a tip for us?

Charged this morning, I just got a shipping notification with the same date.
Still in the initial 4.24-5.8 group. If you click "forward" on your confirmation email from Apple, it'll show the exact time
Yet you're still complaining.let's keep it real. The whole point of the forum is for us to gripe about why we haven't received our watches yet. Everyone's primary focus is their own order. We only care about what happens to the next guy's order in determining what that means to our very own order.
Truth. But I think we deserve to complain just a bit. Lol.
I agree.
But at the same time, what is so wrong with people wanting to feel important for a few minutes? With all the celebrity lust, all the rich corporations and their large and rich executive teams, all the issues in the world that make people feel small, what is so wrong with this guy wanting to be the cool kid on the block for a few minutes?
I'd venture to say a lot of die hard Apple fans were nerdy/geeky/oddball types who got pushed around in their childhood. I don't see anything wrong with them enjoying some attention for being an early adopter. It seems vein on the surface, but I'm pretty sure everyone tries to feel important in some way or another in their lives.
Let alone the orders from second wave countries. And by the way, we have these three new ads running to get more people to make a purchase. Are we in the holiday season yet?
The 42mm SS BSB that shipped moments ago is now in my support profile - week 16 for what it's worth.
Yuppers. I'm 12:03:47 and still no movement. Waiting as patiently as I can. I do post the occasional F U apple post just to make me feel better though.
As others have stated in previous pages you find the exact time by forwarding the email for your order confirmation to yourself, the time will then be in the heading.
Gonna pick my baby up from UPS tomorrow. So excited still, but not as excited as launch day, but who cares. Everyone still waiting on the 4/24-5/8 window will see movement this week, I'm almost sure of it. And stay strong guys.
I think some people make assumptions that just because early adopters like to be first, they think we're just trying to show off in some vein way ("neener, neener look at me I got a Watch and you don't, poo poo head!") but that couldn't be further from the truth. We're just technology enthusiasts, and we love to take the deep dive into being first, learning from the experience, and sharing it with people who ask about it.
And the little perk of people showing interest and talking to you about it might have otherwise never been a conversation/communication that took place without it, and a lost opportunity to connect with a new face.
But yeah... the trolls, they just see it as whiney wah-wah bullcrap, and don't actually get it.
You're in good company here lol. Does anyone remember what time the 4.24-5.8 deliver by date switched to May or 4-6 weeks? Pretty sure they were still in the earlier shipment group through 00:09:00+
Makes me think they are gonna still moving quicker than they have been
People are taking some very small parts of posts and painting some very incorrect pictures with it.
You don't have to actually forward it. Just hit the forward button and it shows the seconds. Then just cancel the forward.
Just getting back into the forums after a day away. Looks like a far amount of movement today? Where (time wise) are we sitting in the queue? Have we hit any +4:00 orders yet?
Looks like we don't have any jets in the air either. That surprises me a bit.
EXACTLY! It has not a damn thing to do with being vain, entitled or the center of attention. I've never enjoyed being the center of attention, but new toys are fun. They start conversations. They help you meet new people sometimes. Just like anything - new cars, new houses, new jobs, new clothes. Some people are way too good at taking a few words and making them into something much differently than the truly are.
We are still pretty much in the :03s. And a few flights landed earlier this morning, but nothing since then. Surprises me, too, as I thought that once Monday rolled around in China the planes would begin.
In looking at the Google doc we can't post here, it looks like 0:08:00 to 0:09:00 it slipped to 4 to 6 weeks or May 13 to 27.
I did see a post earlier today that indicated it could be as early as 0:06:00
