My email time says 12:04:54. I'm in Santa Barbara, CA. My order says still processing. Ugh, how much longer??

I would think it must be pretty soon as my order was 5:04:40 (so only 14 seconds ahead of your order). However, I am in Australia so that could also impact the order in which things are despatched.
 
So if I ordered a 42mm Space gray watch today, April 26th... am I absolutely hopeless for getting it before May 15th or so?

Well considering that they are saying June, maybe.. If they are able to ramp up production you might get it in May but more likely the later part of May since they are nowhere near done getting through the orders for April 24-May 8 and the people who were quoted 4-6 weeks at time of preorder.
 
Lesson learned here as well. With Apple allowing so many more countries to order on pre-launch days (including highly populated ones like China), you want to place your order within no more than 2 minutes. But 1 minute is even better. Things like AppleCare can wait until after you receive the order. The Apple Store app tends to be available earlier than website but have both ready to access. So when another pre-launch opns up at 12:01AM PST, I will complete my order by 12:02AM PST (or 12:03AM PST at latest). So notice to all: I'm not playing around next time. In fact, I'll buy two so I can sell the other one on eBay to someone who doesn't order early but wants to receive an early order.

Yup. Agree with everything here. I'm definitely buying 2 of each next time. Apple is just getting so big worldwide that it's not really possible to have units available for everyone during launch. And in the least a 10 minute craiglist sale will net $100 - $300 free cash!
 
00:05:01 (not even kidding on that one second.)

Hoping for maybe a Wednesday or Thursday delivery.
 
Ha ... Me too. I wonder if people would have been happier if Apple had just said launch day was May 8th.

No change over the weekend. I still can't believe 5 minutes into preorder that I am more likely at this rate going to be a May 8th delivery.
 
I've been lurking here for quite some time now. I thought I'd chime in with my discontent...

This is my new routine. It used to be: home>change clothes>Facebook (as quickly as possible)>Reddit

Now my routine consists of: any free moment in my day>phone app for credit card>apple store app order page>lurking in this forum if I'm at home.

I'll keep the forum updated on my progress. It will be interesting to see how fast the white sport changes status. Looks like they are shipping very fast. I'm in Los Angeles, California.
 
I'm not trying to start a flame war here but some of you guys are blowing things out of proportion with the emails to the CEO.

I'm disappointed just as much as you guys are that I didn't get my watch on release day, all of us following this thread are. The problem is when we all clicked that button to place our order it clearly stated 4/24-5/8 and it's only 4/26 for most of us. If many of you are right, they are going by exact order time and it doesn't get much more fair than that IMO.

The communication was unclear since we knew they would start delivering devices on the 24th, but they clearly stated "some" not all were going to get them on day 1. Even though the BSB has felt like it was put on the back burner, we're still nowhere near 5/8 promise yet.

I think they should have prepared better and given more distinct information, but they still haven't failed on any of the promises they have made. Many of us compared this launch to others and expected that we would still get them on day 1 and chose to ignore that we we're given a two-week range for a reason. I blame myself for my disappointment since I was overly optimistic about getting it early when it was never guaranteed.

I wish you all the best and hope we all receive some good news soon though :)

Agreed. All these letters mean is that we are super bummed about not having the device yet, and are spending way too much time on this forum. Everyone was fine 1 week before pre-orders, and now the sky is falling. It's not like we even missed out guaranteed window. Apple just needs better inventory status next time and this wont be such a problem. But can we all relax a little. Saying there will be "more returns because we are bitter about the launch" is so absolutely ridiculous it makes me laugh. I know the moment I get my package, and unbox it, I will be so freaking excited. The SS model is probably the most beautiful peace of consumer technology I've ever seen. And I can't wait to have a HR monitor on me all day to keep me motivated to exercise. Keep your heads up people, it's going to be just as good!!!! And get off the forum....:D:D:D:D:apple::apple::apple::apple:

. Currently, it's about 30 seconds a day. The latest arrivals are week 16 production just before launch day. Some of us expect some acceleration once Sunday is behind us, but its anybody's guess until we get more days.

What do you mean by 30 seconds? That they are charging a new card every 30 seconds? That doesn't seem like nearly enough. What week do you think our watches will be, if received tomorrow or Tuesday?
 
northern California.
42 ss bsb, 24-8 delivery date
charged last week on the 22
still no change just same old processing order crap!!!:mad:
 
So does it look like the sport editions are shipping FASTER or slower? Based on peoples confirmations could you please post your thoughts?
 
My tracking number still isn't live two days later. Does that mean it hasn't moved in two days! Ugh
 
I would think it must be pretty soon as my order was 5:04:40 (so only 14 seconds ahead of your order). However, I am in Australia so that could also impact the order in which things are despatched.

Yes, I agree with you. I think the shipments are different for Australia. I hope I'm wrong. Best of luck to you and I hope you get it soon.:apple:
 
Hell yeah, I ordered mine this morning, hopefully shipping of those will go through this week! Might be waaaay too wishful thinking.

This thread is for the SS BSB model. If you check the thread "4-6 weeks deliver (may 13th-27th) pre-orders" you'll have a better idea on how the progress of your specific model is moving. People who ordered the SG less than 6 mins into pre-orders on the 4/10 are still posting that they are yet to be charged or have any movement. Anything can happen, just don't do what we did and set yourself up for disappointment lol
 
Just got got charged!!!!
3:03:42 EST 4/10 confirmed
2:04 EST 4/27 charged

Mine is shipped on 4/25 and I will get it on 4/27. My 42mm SSBSB was ordered on 12:03am confirm. I'm in Los Angeles and as of now, UPS shows arrived in Ontario. It's weird because I'm still not showing a charge on my Chase debit card through Apple Pay. But at this point I don't care lol, just hope it comes in tomorrow.
 
Looks like they are moving again!

Just received a charge notice !! at 2:18 AM EST 4/27 , I received my email order confirmation at x:04 and also the EOD on Wednesday night. I don't have shipping info and my apple account still shows processing.

Update - Store is now showing Preparing for shipment - 2:21 AM EST 4/27
 
Just got charged for my 42mm SS BSB, my bank declined it because of fraud protection but i changed to a different card, hope it ships this week!
