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

I noticed this time when it came back into the USA, it cleared customs in Anchorage, whereas it didn't the first time through - wonder if there was paperwork missing and it was sent back. Thinking 11/2 is the official delivery now.
 
My 2-9 November watch arrived yesterday:

My Nov 2-9 45mm SBTi (which started as a last week of October delivery estimate) is showing Nov 4th on UPS and Nov 9th on Apple’s site.
 
Great news! Reordered my watch after sending back the damaged one. Initial delivery estimate was Nov 20-27, which soon shifted to Nov 13-20. Then boom! Out of nowhere I got a notification about shipment on Wednesday and got my watch delivered yesterday! Well done, Apple Store China, I am more than happy! Someone must've read me complaining on various feedback forms 🥲 - otherwise I cannot understand how they could draw a connection between my return for refund and a new order, and expedite it.

Thats great news for you!!

My replacement still says December. Apple support finally indicated I was unlikely to see a replacement much before then. 😢

Any one else have a watch in FedEx shipping stuck in Memphis? Mine arrived in Memphis on Wednesday morning and appears to be stuck in “Clearance” as of noon on Friday.

Just ordered a Apple Watch Series 7 - 45mm - Graphite Stainless Abyss Blue Sport from AT&T online and it said mid-November ship date but it already has shipped and receiving tomorrow. Guess you don’t have to always trust the dates.
I ordered the same exact model from Apple and my order shows 11/17-11/24. Yet, Amazon had the same watch available for next day delivery. I would have picked one up from Amazon if not for the Friends & Family discount I have with Apple.

Where is better to order Hermes watch from Hermes (there is no information about delivery time) or from Apple?
Depends on the dates Apple is telling you. If you're in the US, Hermes.com ships via FedEx from NJ, and you can pay for expedited shipping for me it was $35 to upgrade to Two Day Air and something more exorbitant to upgrade to Overnight. You also get the orange boxes wrapped in beautiful Hermes ribbon. If Apple is giving you a firm date that's close enough, that's pretty accurate too.

I got the same watch/band from Amazon took 3 days, $50AUD cheaper too. Still on the fence with it though lol.
