Moving along

I went ahead and ordered some screen protectors.

Of course you can do that. I never used any not even on my 45 Ti S7, can’t stand the look, but that’s just me…

Relying on AppleCare for any screen damage. If any, I would go for that tempered glass up top - but that TPU Film stuff has been poor in my past experiences...it's not as slick as glass and it distorts the screen a bit.

Arrived in Incheon at 5:37am.

Yeah, I choose the local CC. My card was charged the $6, but I haven't received an update from UPS and on My Choice, it still lists my address for delivery, vs the CC. Still says 9/23, though.

Mine said the same thing. After getting confirmation that my 14 PM was being held, I got another scan that said it was out for delivery, but they were actually holding it at the hub. I was the “delivery person” coming to pick it up. After I signed for it, it even said delivered in my city, even though the city for my hub is different from my address.

Thank you! I just canceled the TPU film one. Decided to order 2 Tempered Glass Screen protectors instead. Thanks, again. No wonder why the TPU film was so cheap for 8 screen protectors. Doh!

Theres a video I posted recently where the guy puts the Milanese loop on the Ultra. It looked fine.

I’m thinking of buying one at Apple on Friday and test it out with my Ultra. I have to return one of the Ultra’s I ordered so I might as well buy a new band if it’ll fit the Watch.

AC+ does not cover scratches. Had some on my S4SB though barely visible… but for me it is more of a tool, certainly not jewelry.
But again, to each their own

Now those who got to Incheon on flight UPS81, will depart to Alaska in about 2.5 hours in flight UPS89.

I see my Ultra is in Korea.

 

[FrankySavvy]

Apples website still says preparing for shipment for my Ultra. Although I just checked UPS My Choice and it has indeed already shipped and is in Incheon as of 5:27am local time.

Anyone thinking will see reviews by tomorrow or Wednesday?

I have a feeling reviews will be out on Wednesday at 06:00 AM PST. Could be tomorrow too.

What band did you guys order with your Ultra?

I ordered the midnight ocean. I think I began to dislike it the more I look at it. I went with the ocean band thinking that it'd be better handling sweat and water.

Ordered it with Green Alpine loop but also have orders in for black/grey & blue/grey trail loops for early Nov delivery

Here's the video.

I just watched the video and I’m going to give it a try with the Milanese Loop.

I ordered a pack of 3 tempered screen protectors. I have a habit of hitting my watch on something at work, and with the tempered screen protector on my S4, it has saved it from getting scratched.

Good to know, thanks!

Boop boop bee boo boop

 

[CodeSpyder]

I guess you all know that progress has been made.

 

[highdefjunkie]

Is it me or does the Milanese loop looks too small for Apple Watch Ultra 8?


View attachment 2072376

Agreed. I was hoping it wasn't going to be the case with some of their older bands.

I gotta order some as well. Thanks!

Reading these messages I see if I want to oick up my watch on Friday 9am I have to use mychoice and change the delivery to a customer center. Starting the process UPS is charging $5.99 to route it to a UPS store. Are UPS stores a customer center? If not how do I know to make sure I don’t delay the delivery until Monday. Thanks. Larry

I’m part of Wave 2 and didn’t get a departure scan. I think it’s only wave 1 who departed. Wave 2 is almost a day behind.

That’s strange, I thought I was wave 2 because I didn’t get the Shanghai arrival notice

until late yesterday and now I’m in Korea… I guess I’m the first wave.

The UPS store is not the same. Sending it there could cause a 1 day delay. I’ve had things delayed for a day and I’ve also had it arrive on the original delivery date. The CC is ur best bet to guarantee it’s there on launch day.

See the post below, please. All 9/17 are part of Wave one.

Arrived at the Facility. Shanghai, China 🇨🇳

There’s a few that arrived at Shanghai on 9/18 but got out with Wave 1 today. I see at least @blueyz628 and @BaddAdvice
