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 ordered my black stainless steel with black bracelet back on 4/10. It finally shipped on 6/9, with a delivery date of 6/12. Then, amazingly, it got bumped up to 6/11. I was pretty excited! Then I checked today and I got several notices re: a mechanical failure. The second notice reads

A mechanical failure has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Your package was released by the clearing agency.


At this point, the watch appears to be stuck in Korea reading:

A late flight has caused a delay. We're adjusting plans and working to deliver your package as quickly as possible.


Delivery date is now listed as "not available"


What a bummer. Anyone else had this happen?

I'm in the same boat and was to have had the same delivery date as you.


Before finding this out I first looked at a text from Apple stating my delivery would be today and clicked on the link and yup, UPS delivery by EOB. But no, this was for Apple Care??? I've ordered this before but never had a package sent for it.


So it seems our wait continues.
