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
iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 8.3
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 mine at 12:02 and I haven't gotten a shipping email yet. I'm relieved to know that no one else has yet. I'd love to know when they start shipping. I can hardly wait. I keep checking my status too.
I ordered a 42mm aluminum space gray at 3:04am EST and my conformation says Delivers 4/24-5/8 and it still says items processing, for the last week I was checking the status about three times a day and about every hour over the weekend, I'm going to assume that those who are getting the first shipment should be receiving their notifications by the 21st.
YYelp. But the delivery companies - UPS and FEDEX in theUS - are instructed to not delivers until the release date.
Still checking - Watch w/black sports band ordered at 3:03 EST? No change yet. Isnt this fun???
42mm SS sport band ordered April 10 at 3:03 AM Eastern standard tim ordered April 10 at 3:03 AM EST... Order still showing processing. Eagerly anticipating a shipping change sometime today or tomorrow. Does anyone know if they only make changes to shipping status at a certain time? One today?
YEssss! I did that for iPad original and now this! Very exciting!
MMy order was at 3:16 am ESt I was a little sleepy and confused but I did manage to think about getting the less desirable model and color knowing that I can change bands and thinking when I get it I can just go to the Apple store and exchange it. Cause surely there will be a huge stock like the iPad when it first came out. Boy was I wrong. And I'm glad that I had the hunch of doing a preorder this time. I always go stand in line. And then I managed to think about getting up and doing it as soon as it opened up. Had no idea that there would be a wait if I would have done it later in the morning. So I got a shipping date of 4/24 -5/8. Still processing. I check about 10 times a day. This is both exciting and frustrating at the same time. I love launch days but this one has been annoying. Such a long wait. If Steve jobs were still with us he would have waited until he knew for sure theN released info and if you noticed he never made us wait more than 2 weeks. Cook made us wait more than a month and then screwed up the release date. Smh.
Re Vistah8tr checking every hour: LOL - me too! Got e-mail from Apple at 12:04 am Pacific time. Not preparing for shipping yet. : (
well we have to remember that it's only about 7am on the West....perhaps im thinking about this all wrong and maybe updates come from another time zone but I assume it comes from CA or at least in that time zone.
I think it does come fron the west coast. That is the case in Canada (time zones are all B.C. ) my order was 308am Pacific Time and still listed as processing. Checking quite often 🙂
Im checking quite often as well...I saw on another post that you can check you credit card that you used to order. they take the money out a few days before they ship so thats something else to have hope for if the status hasn't changed...it will be awesome once the status does change and we get a little more info....Well maybe most of us will get an update in about 30-45 mins or so..if not, sometime today.
If they are shipping from California it's only 7:37am there so it's still about an hour and a half form the start of the business day so hopefully we should find out soon.
My email confirmation came 3:02am EST. I use a tracking app called DELIVERIES, and today it is showing "Delivered by May 8th". Yesterday it showed processing (with no date) and overnight it went to by May 8th. Very discouraging.
No updates yet but here is an article I just saw..im refreshing every 10 mins to read articles to see whats going on!! i am truly an "Apple Junkie". While this is only theory, it is a good theory. Apple ALLEGEDLY could be creating watches to-go. Meaning they are making the models as they are ordered to keep production cost low in order to avoid overstocking. Its a good idea because the market is so new and they do not have any data to go off of. So how do they produce 38 models of this watch and have no way to come close to which models they need to produce? They can't until they get pre-orders. thats why they wont have any in the store friday.

so that means you got a tracking number? or how did you track a package that hasnt shipped yet?
Because the app DELIVERIES accepts Apple order numbers (Amazon too). So I entered the order number associated with my watch and track it that way. It's an awesome app FWIW.
