Apple says 10/17 and UPS says 10/16 delivery. I can’t wait!

I ordered my s3 through T-Mobile on September 27 relatively early in the morning. As of right now T-Mobile hasn’t deducted the taxes from my bank account. I have an estimated shipping date of 11/08/2017-11/22/2017. Hopefully I can get my watch soon. I am new to the watchOS ecosystem. But it is frustrating how T-Mobile hasn’t found a way to efficiently ship the products consumers order though them. But oh well. Hope I see it soon.

[Update] Still nothing has changed as of Oct. 14 5:20 pm

Originally ordered from Apple last week but then I realized places had the Nike+ in stock. I ordered a 42 lte nike+ from Macy’s on 10/07 and it was delivered today 10/11. Nike.com also had them ready to ship. My local target also had 3 of the 42 lte Nike+ in stock on Sunday but they were all silver.

Search for either fed ex or ups fleet and you should be able to pinpoint which flight your package is on.

I’m really bad at figuring out which time correlates to which flights or if an export scan means the plane left Shanghai at all. I just wish UPS would update their tracking information more often.

Anyone know what this means? Last I checked it was exporting out of Shanghai. Now I can’t get any info other than this.

[doublepost=1507790213][/doublepost]That happened with mine. I think it’s because Apple’s delivery date scheduled one day later than what UPS scheduled. That is Apple said mine would be delivered 10/13 but actually it will be delivered today 10/12. Today, YEA!

It could be weather, or they had a problem with a plane and need to get another one. Either way, barring something major like a hurricane, they'll still hit Apple's date or sooner. They change the status in the chance that they're not able to fix the logistics in a timely manner. Very rare indeed that they're not able to.

Hi everyone, first time Apple Watch buyer, long-time lurker here. Ordered my watch (42mm SS GPS + cellular w/ Milanese Loop) on 9/17 from Apple. Have been reading this forum and checking the shipping status of my order daily since then.

I was excited to see that on Monday 10/9 my order finally shipped. The Apple site shows estimated delivery of 10/16 but the UPS site has consistently said delivery on 10/13.

But, on the UPS site, the shipping details don't show any activity since 10/10. It looks like it was put into the system at 10:06 a.m. ET on 10/9 in China. It then left Suzhou, China and arrived in Shanghai the morning of 10/9. There are lines in the history that talk about awaiting clearing agency review, but the last thing is an export scan on 10/10 at 9:52 a.m.

Here's my question: Anyone else seeing anything like this? I've ordered many products from Apple before that have originated in China. I've been surprised at how quickly those showed up after shipping. This most recent shipment seems to have gone into a black hole for 2 day.

That's crazy. I bought the exact same watch through AT&T on 9/22 and mine delivered on Monday. It's so confusing how Apple prioritizes these things. From my experience, and it dates back to Powerbook G4 back in 2004, it's normal. I remember tracking my Powerbook back then and something similar happened. It was in China, then 12 hours later being delivered (in a tropical storm) to my house. So you never really know.

I just contacted UPS. Mine shows Export Scan on 10/10 in China and my Deliver date shows tomorrow in Michigan. UPS said deliver date is based on when the shipping label is generated. So I asked, "Then my package is still in China?" and the reply was "Yes, it will update your deliver once it reaches the states" Arg!!!

Same exact boat as I also ordered via T-Mobile that day and it's showing mid to late November at best for a delivery of a 42mm SG watch :( I'm hoping they get a rush of devices and we get our watches this month, but it's already Oct 12th and not a single bit of movement yet! :(
 
Yeah mine shows an export scan as of 10/11 2:55 PM Shanghai time. I have a feeling they are just piling these orders up waiting to fill an entire plane then sending them all at once. UPS has my delivery as 10/16 and Apple has it as 10/17 so UPS has lots of wiggle room with my order at least.
