Got my watch on launch day, didn’t preorder either. 😊😂 still no stock for stainless steel and Ti models in Melbourne. 🤦‍♂️
That’s crazy. They are really high in demand. I can’t wait till Thursday till I have my AW.
Atleast the event tomorrow will be a good distraction. If there was no event next week. I would be all over Apple but they got lucky this year 😂
 
Well Atleast you’ll have your watch on the same day. 😂
@Boardiesboi @TheYayAreaLiving 5G is the biggest gimmick on mobile phones, giving it a test run, not noticing any difference, apart from running Speedtest. 🤦‍♂️😂

I’m turning it off.

Each speedtest is costing me 1.5gb data. 🤦‍♂️

Wait! Don’t you guys have unlimited data? I was only able to see real 5G kick in when I was in San Francisco, California and I was in downtown around the ghetto area. That’s the only time I have seen real 5G otherwise it never shows up.

No unlimited data here, we get unlimited calls, text and mms, our mobile networks are great over here, I average 400-500 mb over 4G.

I went out for lunch for 15 mins and DHL decided to attempt delivery during this time so I missed it LOL

For some reason Apple has prohibited them from dropping it off at a DHL service point / newsagency so I'll have to wait for delivery again tomorrow. What a disaster.

oh bugger!! I really hope he comes back!

Still waiting to get the message that mine is ready to collect at local depot across the road. It is there but unfortunately I can't pick it up until the status changes 😭 So close yet so far.......

I feel your pain there...

I haven't seen any movement in my DHL tracking. Did yours jump to arrival and delivery all this morning?

So got my shipment email from Apple for my watch that was supposed to be here Friday. That’s the good news! Bad news, ETA is the 26th, granted earlier than the 27-29th estimate.
Weird thing is, it shipped FedEx. That worries me, I trust my local UPS way more than the local FedEx. Anyone else in the USA had their come via FedEx? It says picked up in China when tracked, so it is moving!

Have you had anymore updates because mine says the same?
Nope, still the same thing. I checked my email and message when I ordered the iPhone 13PM, I got a message from FedEx first saying it was on its way then later got the shipping confirmation email from VZ. IIRC the FedEx package says Saturday pickup, then I checked FedEx website, VZ was using FedEx 2 day and they only provide Monday-Friday pickup, and charges a fee for Saturday pickup. My guess is that VZ can’t ship out stuff on Sundays, we might expect them to ship it out on Monday.

Big score!

Dude, what size are your wrists?

I thought the same thing when I unboxed and put it on. Think it looks good--do you like it on you?

True. But also, you're getting a longer dopaminergic rush since you're waiting longer for it. ...and that can be fun...right?

Looks awesome, congrats! 👌 like the band and watch face color 👌 stick with the lighter colored watch faces, makes the screen look huge, I want that Hermes watch face 🤦‍♂️😂


That last pic a midnight leather links band? 😳

They're 155mm - I just measured it. I thought they were 165mm LOL

I always get an extra hole added at the Hermes store.

I LOVE it. I think it's the full screen watch face that makes it feel bigger. I'm using the Hermes Circulae face now and it feels no bigger than the S6.
