I changed my order on May 17 to a SS BSB. It has shipped with a ETA from UPS of Monday June 8. Any chance it will come by Friday? Once it has been shipped how long are people waiting. I am in CA. Here is my UPS schedule so far.

So we are up to May 17th?! :D
 
I changed my order to 42mm SS BSB on 05/31! Looks like I'll get it before I expected! Not yet shipped but still, you guys are giving me hope
 
It's definitely a good sign as far as moving through the orders in front of you goes, but if your watch was on one of those planes, I believe you'd be PFS by now.

As for my watch, yeah, I assume it's on one of the flights headed from Asia to Alaska right now.
After doing some analysis of my six previous Apple Watch orders. All charges hit my CC between 10:16 pm and 1:10 am EST, they all then shipped 12-14 hours later and arrived the very next day. So chances are that if you don't get charged by 1 am EST you won't be getting your watch for another couple business days. I hope this helps. Fyi, full discloser...3 were gifts and the other 3 were sold for small profit of $75 each.

I have yet to receive my actual watch. Hopefully I get a charge tonight...fingers crossed. My purchase date was 5/5.
 
Ordered 5/15 just got charged...changed to preparing for shipment 7-10 days...instead of combing through thread...What's been the length of time between charge and shipment info?
 
Anybody see any movement since 8:30 in Shanghai? Any guesses on how that'll progress?
No change for me. UPS still showing 8:30 in Shanghai. From there they usually go to Anchorage and then to somewhere in the lower 48 depending on the final destination. I checked the flightaware website and they have 6 flights that left Anchorage today but I don't think our watches are on that since UPS updates the tracking info at each destination. So far flightaware doesn't show any flights leaving Shanghai.

Ordered on May 16th and I just got charged today and the status is now "Preparing for shipping." On my account it still says June 16-18 for delivery though. Should I be expecting the tracking number in an email tomorrow?

Probably.
 
I ORDERED a 42mm SS BSB on May 14 - NO MOVEMENT in recent days.....still delivery on June 15 but not PFS yet, still processing.....you guys who are PFS on orders after mine are p*****g me off!!! No seriously, it MUST mean mine will move shortly, yes???
 
WOW! My jaw just hit the floor. I was a May 16th order and was originally looking at late July, early August. Then recently they said June 16-18th which I was super happy with. Now I just received an Email saying that it shipped today (June 4th) and that I'll have it by June 8th. AWESOME!

UPS 81 is scheduled to leave Shanghai to Anchorage right now but is delayed. I think that might be our flight.
 
It's departed. A bunch of ours must be on the same flight. The next 24 hours or so can't go by fast enough.
Yes! My UPS status shows departed too. I think you are correct. A lot of our :apple: watches are on that flight. Counting down the minutes.....
