Apple Watch Shipping Notices

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

I got my order on on 4/10 at 12:03 PST - at least that is the time on the email from Apple acknowledging the pre-order. And no, as of this evening my status has not changed from Processing Your Order to Preparing for Shipment.

I sincerely doubt if anyone will see that update until at the earliest next week. And even if they do ship, Apple's policy in the past for new releases is that the shipping company does not deliver before the release date. (Now I am sure that there are some stories about a mistaken early delivery - or perhaps a hefty tip to the UPS or FEDEX driver......)

Im seeing the same thing, but it's all in the delivery days. Mine is saying it'll be delivered between 26 June and July 6, but new watches are saying July 6-12. The website shipping estimates update weekly, whereas ours updates only when there is a major change. Mine has said 5-6 for two weeks, so that's the shipping estimate as of when it's updated

They just give an estimate, I order a 42 mm blue Leather Loop 4/10 at 1:30 EST and it appeared on the June delevery block and it changed on april 27 to a 4-6 week change it said may 29- june 11 and I got it on may the 15th at 3 pm

they just give a big waiting time due to the many styles and configurations they have, you can receive it earlier....

It isn't a holiday in China where the watches are shipped, so that probably isn't an issue. Given the order back log, one would hope they are working 24/7 to get the watches manufactured and shipped. My order for 42mm Space Gray, Aluminum Case, Black Sport Band (apparently the most popular model) was placed 01:30 PST 4/10/15. Delivery window is 5/29–6/11. Hasn't changed in six weeks. Doesn't look like they have shipped very many watches so far. Hopefully that will change soon! Patience is a virtue, so we are all just going to have to wait, and be patient.
