I ordered at +2hrs SG BSB. Started out as back-ordered until June, then moved to 5/29-6/11 last week. Nothing since. Was hoping to see improvement once all the 5/8 orders filled, but not holding out much hope.
As much as I want to blame Apple I don't think its their fault. They could of just shipped those units with the bad Haptic Engine and then we all get our watches and we will be so happy to have them, then 2 months down the road after we spent $999 to $1099 on our link watches we have to go to an Apple Store and have them fix it or replace it if they even have replacement units. So all I'm saying they made the right move to scrap those bad units and not ship them and that's why we have to wait. Trust me I don't like the wait myself, first Apple launch that I don't have the product on release day.
But still keeping positive that we get our links before June!
Do you think that the 42mm case models were the primary model affected, since the 38mm case models seem to ship faster?
For those still waiting for movement on their orders, here's my status update -
Ordered a 42mm SS with Milanese band on 4/10, received email confirmation at 10 minutes after pre-orders went live, delivery window of 4/24 - 5/8. Had seen absolutely no movement until FINALLY, this evening my credit card has a pending charge and my order is now Preparing to Ship. So much for the under promise and over deliver line, but with any luck I'll have my watch by Wednesday.
Probably completely unrelated, but I did have a chat with an Apple rep online this morning about my order. Didn't give me much info other than there were no "red flag" issues on my order and that until my shipping window passed there was nothing additional they could do for me.
TLR - If you ordered a 42mm SS watch, it is coming, but probably not until the later part of your shipping window.
I'm so confused. I ordered mine at 3:16am EST on April 10th (space grey 42mm). People are starting to get theirs already who ordered it far after me.
It says shipping is May 13-27th but I know people are getting theirs earlier.
Just a bummer to have to wait for something I preordered at the appropriate time.

You should have it in no more than 2 days. Probably 1 as apple is using expedited shipping.Hi Folks. My status just changed to "Preparing for Shipment". Yippy, it's coming early! For those who have their watches, how long from the status change to delivery?
For those interested, it's 38 mm space grey. Ordered at 12:34 AM on 4/10, with a delivery of 5/13-5/27. I'm in Oakland, CA
We are in the same boat. My order confirmation hit my inbox at 10 after 3AM ET and my shipping window is the same as yours. Same exact watch. No movement.
Do you know a few people in your region that ordered the save model as you, after you did, and received it before you?

Our 42mm Apple Watch Stainless Steel w/Black Sport Band just arrived. Apple shipped Next Day Air, so they're clearly rushing these out as quickly as they can. It was originally scheduled for delivery May 13-27. Sacramento, CA
