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

Yes there was a plastic wrap like last year. Also there’s the plastic tab on the box like the iPhone 13
Ooh interesting! Looks like they will still include wrap on the Hermes line, unless Hermes demanded.

Hopefully I will see movement on my watch today. It got picked up on Saturday and haven’t had any update since then, so don’t know if it’s left China on a flight or if it’s still waiting at Shanghai airport.

Based on what me and a few others got for DHL express, you won’t see updates til the watch is already in your country.

I'm still in the same boat as you. Still waiting... I hope we see an update overnight and we start traveling.

Someone posted earlier that there Watch was picked up on Thursday, then the DHL didn't update again till 19:50 on Saturday evening where it said the Watch had landed in the UK.
Following that pattern, we should see the DHL app update for us either tonight or tomorrow.
 
Question is, are you going to wake up at 4am? 🤔😂 Not sure yet to be honest, all this notch news has killed the hype for me.
I’ll be at work. Will be watching it at work. I don’t think I’m going to be productive at work tomorrow morning, smh!
 
No movement in DHL tracking since Wednesday 13th. Have no idea whether my watches are in China, the Netherlands or Germany. 🧐🤨

2 month wait for anyone ordering a Ti model now.
Wish I knew what combinations to look for in the UK stores, it's fiddly trying every different one, with the app not keeping more than one combination in history for the same casing :/

Have you tried favoriting the different combinations? I've found if you favorite a case with a certain band, you can then look at each color of that band as well.

Don’t fret cos that happened to me as well. I was freaking out cos there were no scans but once it arrives in your country you’ll get updates and you should get the watch the day after.

Thanks. 😃 To be fair, Apple's website always stated Oct. 19 to 21. It was DHL that showed the earlier date and gave me hope for a sooner arrival on the 15th. 😅

Yeah, thats how I'm operating. Trying to impatiently bring forward my month wait :)

The normal filters only offer two bands (braided & leather), but I know others had success using the styles to choose other combinations (eg. solo).
