Just curious if anyone has received a shipping notice yet for their Apple Watch If they were lucky enough to get an early delivery date (24th). I know if is probably a bit early but worth asking.
thanks
iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 8.3
I asked the apple rep on the chat and they said it won't matter, because If someone orders today they wouldn't get it earlier than you. Even if it says 4-6 weeks, like mine says 5-6 weeks.
I will probably contact Apple because if someone who ordered now was to get it sooner than me who ordered it weeks ago would be outrageous.
Does anyone know how long it takes to fo from prepared for shipping to shipped?
I think the agent was correct, if someone orders today they will get theirs AFTER you. I think the dates on the existing orders are conservative. Mine said 5-6 weeks last week and then it shipped yesterday.
My "Preparing for shipment" to "Shipped" took about three days.. but it was over a weekend. Went "Preparing for shipment" on a Friday and was Shipped on the Monday.. Delivered yesterday.
But that was just for a strap.. Fits perfectly.. Lol.😉
What band did you order? 😮
WWish they would update the conservative dates to something more accurrate. Feel like I've been waiting forever. It's been a month since I ordered mine and it's not estimated to arrive until 22nd-29th June :-(
That is encouraging.
What about how they are talking about getting the watches in stores? Would it be possible for someone to get the watch in store before someone who has ordered it online? Hope not.

Atleast yours doesn't say 25 jun - 2 Jul 😉
everyone in autralia is getting theres fast
im suspecting they are sending quantities of a number of different watches to distribution centres on different cities and then releasing them in order based on time ordered from that location
Since there are less people in australia then the united states I would say having 1 dis centre in australia is better then 2-3 in the US..
the aussies look to have an advantage here
There was someone complaining about the exact same thing yesterday in regards to China getting their orders for the same watch before them.. and having ordered after them.

actually you should hope so...
if the stores started getting stock of the watches.... people will start cancelling there pre-orders and you'll move up in line
i welcome the store availability.
I really want my space grey... but I'm sure there are others out there that would impulse buy another model and then cancel whatever model they have to get it earlier
That is a valid point, however I do not think it would be right of Apple to release watches to people who have not ordered online and been waiting weeks.
i got my watch already and it came a week earlier than the delivery window. trust me when i say apple is on there game and shipments are picking up. it all depends on the time u ordered and the region u r in. thats y it seems like some people are getting b4 others. i been a loyal apple customer since the original iPhone. trust me this watch is worth the wait. i do understand y'all frustration. i been there. lol (hang in there)
