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......)

I'm still waiting for mine to turn to "shipped". Mine (same watch) was ordered on 4/23 and also changed to PFS this morning.

Is there any way of determining what time they changed that? I noticed it between 7-7:30 am (EDT), which means it has been at least 10 hrs. Most people have reported the transition being faster than this...

mine has been on Preparing for shipping since 6 am. Still is. I called Apple and the Genius said it was shipping from a US factory and I "could" have it in as little as 3 days but before the 16th. Such a joke how this is going! I think an order is assigned to a factory and no matter what it stays there untill it is done. Some factories are prudicing more faster so those orders go out quicker. I got the Snail Factory!

I just got an email from Apple letting me know the watch will ship in 9-11 Business Days. It's a pretty new order, but I didn't get an email when the date was bumped up for the first time last Friday. Did anyone else get emails from Apple when updates happened? If not, that makes me think this may be where my ship date finally lands.
