While I'm happy to hear some individual link bracelets are starting to move, which is encouraging since production is clearly ramping up, I want to hear of some movement on actual SS Watch/link bracelet combos.

It's cool watching my spouse play with his, but a bit painful too. I'm ready for my closeup with the watch!

Yesterday I told you guys my about the email I received 5-7-15 at 10:07am EST. it was regarding my Apple Watch, Black Face with Black SS link bracelet. Unfortunately, my card was not charged last night and my order status has remained the same. However, I do look at the email as a good thing because my original ship date was for June I'm still not going to be touching it this weekend. I tried to post snips of my order and confirm email but the site won't let me. Below is the email I received yesterday, confirm and status

I hope this makes people feel better, I don't, with the exception of having received the email at all.

Seems odd to me that people are reporting that their separate link bracelets are shipping/being delivered now (can't post links yet, but see the Band Order updates thread in this same forum) and yet no one is reporting that for people who ordered link bracelet watches are reporting shipment yet.

Right? Kind of starting to frusturate me. If I don't see movement on my watch by next week..... I'm gonna...... still wait some more. ;)

Yup. So the lesson here, I suppose, is just relax. Agitation in this case achieves nothing but higher blood pressure. :beer:

I'm just gonna wait till the 13th and chill. It's my delivery window beginning and if it don't show, nothing will change as I'll keep checking here, UPS, and the apple store online LOL

At this point, it'll get here when it gets here and on that note, off to make a drink and a chill pill :)

I ordered mine on April 10th and got it today

Wait. You're saying you ordered a Stainless Steel Watch w/link bracelet on April 10th and it was delivered to you today?

That should make you the first person to get one. Awesome, if I'm reading you correctly. Can you post a photo to get us excited that ours may soon be on the way?

Based on his comments in another thread, I think he just got the bracelet to go with a watch he already had. But he could say better than I!

I think that is a good sign for anyone that ordered a Black SS with Link bracelet before you ordered yours at :09. Since I ordered mine at :05 and didn't get an email, maybe I will get my Watch on the 13th and not in 2-3 weeks. I hope so, because I'm out of the country between the 17th and the 26th.

Ordered 42mm SS w/ Link Bracelet at X:03 on 4/10. I just noticed a charge for the Apple Care portion of my watch order. Still "processing" and haven't seen the charge for the watch. Anyone have experience with how long after the watch was charged/shipped?

When I ordered on 4/10 shortly after launch my AppleCare+ charged to my account but came off the next day. I think they system was checking that charge went through.

As far as when it ships after charging, it USUALLY shows up 2 days afterwards but not always.

If you've followed the MacRumors forum for this exact watch, they, too are all chomping at the bit and NO ONE has gotten the watch with link bracelet other than those that ordered the link bracelet separately.

Let's cross our fingers for some Monday movement!!!!!

I ordered the 42mm SS w/ Link Bracelet at X:02 on 4/10 also. No charges or status change yet. They did test my credit card the first week after I ordered but then it came off the card before it posted. What really got me going was I took my wife to the Apple Store last week to look at them and she decided she wanted a 38mm SS with Black Classic Buckle so I ordered it Wednesday with a delivery date of 1-2 weeks. The card got charged and on Thursday it shipped and delivered Friday. It's killing me I'm still waiting and she got hers 2 days after placing the order.

Last week to look at them

Believe me, I feel your pain! I have to walk by the watches everyday I go to work and all my co-workers that have already gotten their watches kills me. The only bonus is that I'm off for this week and come Monday it's back to work and there will be even more people wearing their new watches....uhg!

I want my watch NOW, so take my money LOL!

Sorry I posted before finishing it. It's been edited finally.

I'm with you buddy! I'm hoping Monday brings good things to us who have waited "patiently". Well, back to checking the status, again. I think it's been a whole 30 minutes since the last check! ;)

Yeah, Wednesday is the first day of the delivery window I received back on April 10th. I thought I'd have seen some progress this weekend. Fingers crossed for Monday action!
