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......)
Which bank is this? Mine never calls me 🙂
I ordered mine on the 12th and the email confirmation was 10:03am EST. I'm in Ohio.
John$,
I'd like to clarify. I just found out now that this was a pre authorisation. Delivery dates still remain the same. I jumped the gun a little. FYI this is Bank of Ireland. I'm in Ireland but I'm having it delivered to a friend in Chicago who is bringing it back at the end of June.
I ordered my 38mm blue sport band on May 21st and recieved it yesterday! 6 days from placing the order to recieving the watch! Super excited and loving it so far. Need to find some more watch friendly apps.
I ordered a 38mm Sport, White Sport Band on May 6th and it arrived yesterday. Wife hates it. Returning it tomorrow. So much for that.
If you don't mind me asking, Why didn't she like it?
Don't mind at all.
I have a Fitbit Charge HR and she's seen the features there. She works nights as a nurse. So she was interested in the sleep tracking as well.
Not as pretty as Apple Watch but as a health/activity tracker it really can't be beat. But she also expressed interest in the Apple Watch.
She wore it to work last night with 80% battery. Didn't sync all of her apps to it on purpose cause I read that can overwhelming. Just added Starbucks for now.
She barely had a chance to mess with it and it was dead by midnight. She started work at 7pm.
The Fitbit automatically senses when you go to sleep and wake up. It continuously tracks your heart rate. Apple Watch does neither of these.
The Fitbit app is really wonderful. The Apple Health app is not very good at all at least in comparison.
As a health/activity tracker as it stands the Apple Watch kinda stinks. It's beautiful, yes. But for that much money it's more of a toy/status symbol really.
That said, I apparently have a 38mm Sport with White Sport Band for sale. Lol.

Wives are crazy
Finally got my watch. still at work but its waiting patiently at home
LUCKY... I preordered mine april 12 ( SG BSB 42mm) and I stl got A June 16-22 shipping estimate. I go to the Apple Store this morning and see that you can buy the same watch and same size at get it at the same time(June 16-22) apple ***. I preordered the watch which means I should be one of the first to get it right??? APPARENTLY NOT
So regardless of the fact that Apple has caught up you think they should artificially delay the orders they are now receiving?
Since the Apple Watch has no sensors to measure sleep and has never claimed to have them why would you buy the Watch?
Haven't had the battery issue you mention and the Watch does periodically measure heart rate.
Mine updated again today
Shipped on May 28, 2015

I've read it actually does have the sensors and it has the means to record sleep data in the health app. But Apple has not given it the ability similar to a Fitbit.
In order to track sleep you have to actively tell it you're going to sleep and waking up.
The watch does periodically measure heart rate. Periodically To save battery. Fitbit measures heart rate continuously with a 5 day battery.
Sorry if I insulted the almighty apple watch. It's just not up to speed for a $350-$10,000 device when a $150 device does most of your common activity tasks way better.
Returning it tomorrow. Maybe they'll put out a better device next year.
