Very nice. Here is my baby.
And here is mine

I am curious. I see some people ordered the Hermes edition. May I ask why you decided to go for this expensive version? Is it the watch bands? Or is there something other special thing?
Combination of the bands and the faces, plus the option of Space Black SS, which I love.

PREPARING TO SHIP!!!

BOOM! Preparing to Ship! Let’s go. Anyone with OCT 26-OCT 28 delivery check your status now and please report. I can no longer cancel my order!!! Let’s go!!! 🙇‍♀️🤗🥲View attachment 1864981
I’m in the same group. Wonder how soon they will show up on UPS and if they’re coming from China
 
Yeah not sure. I don’t see any more 5X flights from SDF to ORD today or scheduled for the morning yet. Could be by land I guess.
Keep me posted. Let me know ASAP once you hit that final departure scan. Happy and safe travels to you. Big day tomorrow. 🥂
 
Guys, is there a reason why the majority of orders' origin scans are in China and mine is in Carlisle PA?

Does it mean mine is somehow an inferior model; or that something happened to my model, and it had to be diverted to Carlisle PA to be fixed?
No, of course not. It just means that yours was in the first batch shipped stateside from China, and is in the Apple warehouse in PA already.
 
Gotta love Porsches. I've owned two of them and I'm tempted to get another one. Now that the kids are all grown up, I would love to own a Boxster :)
While I love the car, I bought it on a whim. Still not sure if I am going to keep it or not. Its super fun but I have severe car ADD. lol. Always looking for something new. Drives my wife crazy.
 
Long time lurker first time poster. I’m due to pick up my first AW in store tomorrow (UK) I’m a bit worried at this point. Apple Store is still saying it will be available to pick up tomorrow but my card payment is still pending and the watch isn’t ready for collection yet. Anyone in the same boat? The shop I’m picking it up from doesn’t close until 9pm but I’m a bit concerned that the money is still pending. I originally ordered a Gold SS with the cherry leather strap for delivery but it wasn’t going to be available until the end of October so I cancelled it a few hours later and ordered the Gold SS with the Forest strap for a store pick up.
Just got the pick up notification for here in Bath. A few hours later than usual (albeit, iPhone) launches, but still glad to get it!
 
UK, Hermes 45mm. DHL shipping notification just now.

Shame not DPD as I trust them, but to be fair can't remember a DHL delivery so don't know if good or bad - do they give a time slot?
To answer my own question, just looked in my text messages chain and it seems that the last few Apple deliveries I have had have come from DHL with an hour time slot :)

Do you watch Modern Family? This reminds me of when Phil bought a sports car instead of a minivan like he was supposed to and calamities ensue. Can’t fit the kids, can’t even fit real estate signs! 🤣

No, that's one of the places Apple stock piles iPhones and Watches for a launch. I think my AW must have been in a US stock pile since ATT is shipping it today from their location so I received it tomorrow. Years ago during an iPhone launch I was concerned because folks were getting their shipment notifications and tracking from China but not me. It turns out my phone was in PA all along and I did receive it on launch day.

Cheers,
B

So happy to see yours moving so soon! Doesn’t feel right that our chief morale officer is left off the first wave of deliveries! I blame your expensive taste! 🤣
I blame my expensive taste too. It got me. It's all good though. I still managed to get an October delivery. Might get it a few days early. I have a feeling i'll get it in the mid of next week. Not to worry. I'm still here.

With utmost respect and appreciation... Cheering and rooting for everyone in here.

Congratulations to all!
 
Shouldn’t be any doubt about the new MBPs!

It was a the resale value of the S5 that put me off getting the 7! That and the month wait for titanium models

Did you get a DPD ping this morning for yours?

Yep, exactly 11:33am ping from DPD! It’s refreshing how reliable DPD are after zero updates from DHL on our iPhone 13 deliveries!

I was going to wait out the time for titanium but S7 pre-order day took over & I went in for a Midnight Nike & Starlight braided for the missus. I’m now thinking the green with leather looks best for myself & save the titanium cash towards the MBP. Fun & games for me tomorrow, I work close to Apple Regents Street store so I’ll be paying them an early visit to try and bag a green S7 in-store.

My S5 I’m thinking about giving to charity, aka Apple trade-in 😂

Oh yes, new MBP’s are a solid bet! I’m excited as that will be my go to Apple work horse & I’ll sell my old 27” iMac.
