Q: 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

A:

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 am with you and Core! I'm pretty sure my boyfriend is sick of me talking about my ship date, my band's unpopular status, and how late I stayed up to order it.  Glad to have some friends across the nation to chat with!

    I ordered the 38mm Sport with the white band and received confirmation at 2:03am CST. Status changed to Preparing...on Monday and my card was charged  i went to FedEx and used Track by Reference without luck UNTIL I tried putting in two reference items; phone number and email address. With both reference items and the date/zipcode, I get a status screen that says "In Transit" for both but without any additional details, unfortunately

    I chose to not bother my wife with my watch stalking. She's amazing and my everything. I Just know her well enough to know that she doesn't share my tech toy fixation. Glad I have this forum to share my obsessing. Thanks for keeping us updated Tony. You live in the northeastern USA too?

    has the unthinkable happened? has the company that we log so much really let us down (i hope not) i mean does the Space Gray even exist??? or is it the Black Sports band thats just a myth ?? lets look at it this way, all of us on here looking for the same answers off others n hoping for some good news & updates on the Watch are just getting the same answers....... 8:02am 12:02am, 10/04 etc are still waiting for the email or the bank balance to go down..... & nothing :-(

     

    i say if we don't get ours Friday we should go to shops n get the ones in the glass desk an say "oh heres my watch I've been waiting to be delivered" or we should all get a nice little email from Apple stating that the watch was never really ready for Friday, or course i hope this is all nit true an its on its ways to the Depo's as we speak an apple pull off the move of the century an get them out for friday to all the got up on went to work late to get a beloved watch b4 the mad rush n we are the loving apple lovers that went that extra mile to do what we had to do to get the prize peace of art we all want.

     

    Ive just spoken to a apple rep that tells me over the phone that i am one of the lucky ones that got in first n my watch will be with me before all the others are do to get theres (clearly lady as the record stands at the min you are wring lol) lets hope not thought come friday...

     

    All to the power of today n lets just hope we all get it friday that made the first cut

    See?  This is why I'm single.  Can't find a guy who gets it,and my dog listens patiently to whatever I talk to him about.  OK, so sometimes he falls asleep while I'm talking, but I don't mind...

    Hi, and thanks for the replies from you and Tony.

     

    I agree, it's nice to have a place to commiserate with others when our spouses/significant others don't get our obsession/anxiety over something we have absolutely no control over.  This is like the holidays where there are more divorces filled on the first Monday then any other time of the year.  Apple needs to go back to the old launch system because all this waiting is the worst.

     

    So come on Tim and crew think of the children!!!

     

    (FYI, that's sarcasm for anyone who didn't get it.  Thought I would make it explicit before some people wasted their time sending me emails that I'm a bad parent if I would let a watch break up my family.)

    If you go back through the posts there was someone who talked about it.  I signed up for UPS my choice but didn't get anything.

     

    Hopefully you will have better luck.

    It may just be your package location hasn't listed it.  They are shipping mine from the Nashville area.

    It's like having a bad dream and a cyclical conversation with these Apple reps.   All they say is Apple is trying to get all orders out ASAP.   Yeah, great.  But why are orders with original ETAs in June moving to the next step, when those of us who ordered within 10 minutes of availability are not having our watches shipped.   Absolutely ludicrous and Apple should stop preorders when all launch day units have been preordered and accounted for.   That way, there wouldn't be all this non-sense two days before "supposed" launch.   The frustration and anarchy surrounding launch day should something a $700 billion dollar company should have a better hold on.   I get it, it's all a win for them...but I find it reprehensible the way these launches are handled.
