Official waiting up for Apple Watch pre-orders pajama party thread!

[vigilant]

Sooo... if I preorder tonight (this morning) ... and then go in and try on watches in the morning and find something I like even better - is it a hassle to cancel the early AM preorder?

It should be pretty easy to do. I've canceled many orders before from the website

do post a link to the website when you find it- it sure is genius

Looks like it's StrapSwap

I don't think it'll be a problem to cancel your original order at all, but your new choice may not be available. That being said, your choice could be avail, if others "cancel" your new choice. I wouldn't count on that though.

My dainty wrists say "38 mm" but my late 40s eyes suggest "42 mm". ARRRRRGH!

I need a 52mm for my late 50's eyes! :rotfl:

I honestly think the website will hold up just fine tonight. We have just over two hours here in Los Angeles and I can't wait so I can take my **** to bed. What I can say is the iPhone 6 launch was pure insanity. I was in Hachioji Tokyo Japan while doing the pre-order. It took me darn near 1 hour to complete the order.

An open letter to West Coasters:

Dear West Coasters,
You lucky [expletive]s. Staying up till midnight isn't that tall an order for the next big Apple product. Time zones can do horrible things. (Not that you'd know.)
Love,
An East Coaster.

Yeah, that was a giant cluster. It took me well over an hour too. I think it shouldn't be as bad this time around, with less people ordering

 

[Scatabrain]

Is Apple allowing users to have their own backgrounds for the watch faces??

Not yet.

http://www.bandswapper.com I believe. But, this may not work as expected because the sport watch may just come with three band segments. One clasping bit. And two different parts with the holes in s/m and m/l.

Less than 2 hours finally

Will be up all night. Gonna use the time to do some work and keep up to date on the happenings here at iMore!

I'm going stainless with a sport and keeping an eye out for a good third-party band or two in the future. I can't justify an extra $200 for a nicer band, but the materials are better on the stainless. Worth it to me.

Apple Watch commercial just came on, hahaha sweet!

BandSwapper - Swap your Apple Watch Sport Band I believe. But, this may not work as expected because the sport watch may just come with three band segments. One clasping bit. And two different parts with the holes in s/m and m/l.

It's called StrapSwap. I can't post the link because I don't have 10 posts yet. You can Google it though with that name.

Is anyone going to order additional bands with their pre order? I'm assuming the bands will be avail to order as well???

Does Apple ship items separate. My concern is that if the band I added was not available for some reason that my order would be held up.
