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......)

That's what I'll do, the pre-authorization form is all ready to go, all I have to do is attach it to the door when I leave for work. And there will be someone working at least part of the day at the house. But I had all kinds of chores lined up to do later on while I waited for it to be delivered. And I was hoping for it to arrive fairly early in the day so I'd have a chance to play with my new "toy" - can't wait to try it out. Ah well, best laid plans and all that. At least I'll be getting it sooner rather than later!

i just got my status change from "processing" to "preparing for shipping" and my apple credit card has a pre auth for my watch and Apple care +.

I Got the space gray sort watch with black band 42mm. I ordered around noon on 4/24/15. I'm really hoping it ships soon because I paid for one day shipping so hopefully it will be here Tuesday or early Wednesday.

My 38mm Sport white band was due June 5, went into preparing for shipment last night, and the date has now changed until June 11th? How is that possible? How long does it take from preparing to ship to shipped? can anyone shed some light on this?

When do you think I'll get it?

Cheers,

James

My wife's 38mm SS ML says that it delivers 8 Jun - 15 Jun, but it's on the truck for delivery today. It took about 6 hours to go from preparing for shipment to shipped, then another 6 hours for the tracking email to come through. I ordered it last Wednesday, along with a 42mm SG BSB that says 16 Jun - 22 Jun. That still says processing. I'm sure you'll have your watch by the end of the week.

I ordered 42mm space grey sport black band on the 24th of April. My shipping changed form june to june 22-29th then the 16-21st now 15th-19th. this morning change to PTS and i was charged. Waiting to see when it ships nd how long!

The funniest part of this whole thing is that my first indication that my watch was shipped was a pop-up notification on my UPS app that I had a delivery coming.
