I hope your luck hits some of the rest of us. I tried to go into a store and buy one today, and they’re online only. Everywhere is saying shipping estimates are early to mid November. Hoping to get it before then.

VZW retailers not getting any in stores till Oct-Nov, I just wait for mines to arrive or buy the one I want from Apple or VZW directly when they have it in stock. No rush at all 😂

When I ordered mine the rep said I would receive it much earlier than the estimate. She was right. Probably same for you. I think they're being extremely conservative with the shipping estimate.

Best Buy has them pop up online periodically with pick up in 3-4 days

Ok the idea to order what's shipping the fastest and later swapping through the MacRumors Marketplace worked! Although I wanted the Orange, I settled for the Starlight. I received it this week Monday and swapped with someone. I received the swap and like it much better!

I love my orange alpine, but after wearing 1 day at work, it’s starting to get dirty, so I ordered a 3rd party alpine band to use instead.

Please let us know how the 3rd party band holds up.

 

[StaceyMJ86]

I will. The Ultra bands cost too much to be getting dirty after 1 day of use.

Ordered a black alpine loop from AliExpress and it arrived today. The green one is from Apple.

The black one is shorter and has slightly more stretch. The lug/clasp color is ok.

Best buy has AWU trail loop with delivery for end of week early next week, could try them. Or just order from Apple. My Verizon order showing 12/16.

It worked! I ordered on 9/29 and just got the shipping email, although it was expected to ship on 11/5.

I ordered with the small orange alpine loop. Small was an accident; meant to order medium. Hope it fits. LOL

I did the same thing, ordered the small by mistake. I ordered mine in 10/4 and just got my shipping notification.

I cancelled my Verizon order and it still shipped, should arrive by Wednesday, original date 12/16. Returning it as it is too small. Lol

Not sure if this is true, but I heard some people brought their small unused apple watch bands to apple and they were able to trade them in for a larger band.

They did not have any larger ones in trail band, took to Apple Store yesterday when I returned my Apple order.
