Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

Baltic Blue band is still not available? Have you checked your local store?

The notch looks very distracting on the Mac 😂
I can't check at my local apple store, stupid restrictions in place 😂 only click & collect at the moment. 🤦‍♂️

I would tell you exactly what Tim Cook can do with that train wreck MacNotch Pro, but I wouldn't be here for much longer if I did. 🤦‍♂️😂

I keep forgetting you guys are still on lockdown. Aren’t you getting your band this Thursday? When I received my AW?

Hahahaha MacNotch Pro! That’s a good name. I’m going to use that if that’s true lol. I honestly think Apple is playing games with us. Monday can’t come soon enough. Twitter is blowing up today with MacNotch news! Haha
 
Did you get any further update on your DHL tracking? My Hermes was picked up on Friday and coming to Melbourne but no scans since then.

I very much understand that global freight space is tight for carriers but would like to see some movement soon!
Nah still sitting in Zhejiang China since Wednesday. How ridiculous!!!
What was your original estimate from Apple?
 
Any idea if any departing flights to Japan are showing up? Im still not sure if Apple is using UPS planes for international shipment.
I think we are at this Shanghai airport lots of flights going to Anchorage from here including next few hours.

So far though no departure scans though so guessing if we will make one of these flights is a pure wild guess. Of the two major airports in Shanghai this is only one that has US flights including many to Anchorage so probably the one to watch once we get a real departure scan for our watches.
 
Never heard of them before but I also just ordered a watch band and a few other items with 15%
Good stuff. I had never heard of them before yesterday either. Glad I found a replacement to my beloved e3 supply co Watch bands.

In my experience nothing beats a hand made horween leather band for durability.

Wow, I'd be climbing the walls. I've seen this before where it's nothing, nothing, nothing on DHL tracking and then an explosion of events late on Sunday as things move through. These are strange times though - I am currently importing a large consignment from Europe for work and it got bumped off the flight earlier in the week. ETA unknown...

My original estimate was Oct 22 and now they're saying the 21st. Not really all that fussed - my AW6 is still rocking along nicely (although my colleague who is gonna buy it from me would probably like it sooner than later!)

I’ve never had an express package sit at one spot for 4 days… something is not right.
Please keep me updated if your tracking updates!

I really think it's just the lack of freight capacity into Au at the moment for all the carriers. This combined with the "problematic" release of the AW7 where Apple didn't ramp up production till later has really screwed this release.

No problems - will update you. Likewise if yours updates today!

Does anyone know how long it takes for optimized battery charging to start working on a new  Watch ?
 
@Boardiesboi What do you reckon? clover silicone case with a sierra blue iPhone? 🤔 since I’ve got the clover watch band? 🤦‍♂️😂

Any movement on your watch? Still haven’t received a replacement email for my watch band. 🤦‍♂️ Should I call them or give them till Monday?

Apple stores might still have these restrictions in place even after lockdown ends, I’ve never seen my local apple store this quiet 👇 you normally can’t move in there.

Doubt I’ll get my watch band on time, our national postal service is a joke.

Might not even watch the event after seeing that hideous notch today.

Yesssss get it! But it’s similar to the green leather case?
No movement at all. Did you get a replacement email for the free case?

Why does it look so dead. Straight up looks like a Microsoft store 😂

You might as well call but knowing you you won’t listen to me anymore so you will wait till Monday 😂

Good call, might save some money since I have the green leather case already. 🤦‍♂️😂

That’s BS mate call them again today, nope, no email, I’ll be calling them in 20m when they open. 😁

Glad I got the midnight leather band, looks very nice with the silver SS, why does the band wrap around that far? I’m OCD, don’t like that. 🤦‍♂️😂

I’ve got smaller wrists than this guy, it might wrap around even more. 🤦‍♂️
