I’m still impatiently waiting for one of these to see some sort of change…the top one was ordered Nov 21 and the bottom one was ordered Nov 18.

The one I think I actually want is the leather link one with the further out date. But new orders right now for the exact same config have dates of Dec 17-21, so I assume that original date is quite off.

Woohoo. Just got charged for the Leather Link one’s amount which was supposed to ship much later (it’s the one I wanted to keep in the end). 🙌 The Apple Store app still shows processing for both for now.

Edit: it now shows as being prepared for shipment.

Udpate: got the Clearance Delayed - Import scan this morning. fedex originally said 12/3/2021 for delivery. So we’ll see if that will hold true but if not, I guess next week.

Anyone else having there Apple Watch order pushed back? I ordered one on Oct 15 with the delivery date of Nov 26-Dec 3rd now today it shows up Delivery Date for Jan 18. The order status has been stuck at preparing to ship since Nov 19.

Apple Watch Series 7 GPS + Cellular, 45mm Graphite Stainless Steel Case with English Lavender Sport Band - Regular

My did (45mm Ti) from Dec 1-8 to Dec 10-17.
Moved from Processing to Preparing to Ship this morning. If it gets pushed further ie late Jan like yours, I'll just cancel again.

Seven days "preparing for shipment". Which indicates to me that it's not really ready for shipment. Apple's system is screwed up. For a while, it told me my iPad Mini was out for shipment, when I picked it up a week earlier.

Mine is now on the 8th day preparing to ship. I agree something is wrong with that and there’s no really update to be found.

Ordered mine - 45mm Midnight Aluminum - through F&F program (USA, CA) on Nov 14th.
Initial Delivery week Dec 8 - 15
Got an updated delivery date today: Week of Dec 1 - 8

Hopefully it's going to arrive the week after Thanksgiving.

Decided to cancel my previous order as the Abyss blue strap became available for in-store pickup.

Ended up putting a new order yesterday and picked it up today. Loving it Couple pics attached

If its preparing to ship. I don’t think you can cancel the order. Just have to wait till you receive it to return it

Just got notified it’s shipped 🎉 it’s already departed the facility in China, and UPS says EOD Tuesday for delivery.

 

[Ryov]

In transit from Shanghai China as last night.. estimated delivery date 10th.. what are the chances it arrives 6th?

Ordered 41mm starlight with lavender sport band, gps/cellular on 10/20. Original date was Dec 8-13. Then moved to preparing to ship 10 days ago with new arrival of 11/26-12/3. Got text from Apple today…1/18/22. Can’t cancel because it’s preparing to ship. Found the exact model I need at a store 60 miles away. Fantastic /s

If that ends up being true (preparing to ship for almost two months), I would call and try to force a cancel. I am 9 days in preparing to ship, but I doubt they wil make the Dec 1-8 date I got.

Same here. 9th day now and no further movment. Arrival date 12/2 to 12/9. Don't see that happening either.

Just got back from my 2 hour roundtrip to pick it up. I asked the store person if she could cancel, but she couldn’t see it. She said to call and they should be able to. We’ll see.

Most likely they won’t see your online orders for delivery. Those you must call them at the customer service. Once it’s preparing to ship, you cannot cancel. Once it’s shipped you can either refuse package (which will redirect to their Return Warehouse), which will process the return. Or just accept the package and then initiate the return.

You could call apple while it’s being shipped to see if they can intercept the package and just go directly to their warehouse. But during PFS, you cannot cancel.

Speaking of: Fedex originally had given me today as a delivery date. But it’s still in Memphis - TN. But I did get the International Shipment Release - Import. So I would expect it would start moving over the weekend and I would have it by Monday. Not a big deal. Definitely would beat the 12/14-21 date that I was given.

I just got notification that it has been shipped and will arrive on the 7th. This is after 9th day of preparing to ship

ugh.. Remind myself to never ship an Apple Watch with a small bag of cocaine.
