Went Starlight with Charcoal Braided Loop - got October 27th delivery. Then immediately had buyers remorse and saw the Dark Cherry Braided Loop - saw 15th October store pickup. Went to checkout, clicked on confirm.. button wouldn't respond and now not available.
Got a tip for us?

App Store came online quickly, but the app kept skipping around when making selections so I wasn't able to make a selection. By the time I did, of course that combo was out of stock, so had to try another one. Then that one was out of stock. What's frustrating is that it wasn't the watch itself, but rather the bands that caused the checkout issues. They really should not force you to get a band with the watch.
Me too!!! Was so excited that they had my combo as a set configuation. 45mm SBSS Rouge Circuit/Noir!!! Fell in love with that color on the day of the event!!! Was so happy I could get that combo!!!! Ordered within 1 minute and then it was pushed back within 10 minutes to November! Also happy to get 3% Apple Cash back!!!Got mine! Can’t wait till next Friday
It’s not. You get Nike exclusive watch faces and access to Nike Run Club app. That’s it. Everything else is exactly the same.
This is how my watch went from shipping 10-15 to JANUARY. I ordered it in time too.
It is, but depends on the option you selected. I didn’t see it for any SS, but for aluminum it was available.
I ordered a band I don't want because I thought "unavailable" applied to that watch model rather than the band color I was choosing. Now I'm wondering if I should cancel and reorder.
Not for me. I got my 13 Pro on launch day that way despite ordering in the afternoon but none of the stores around me in the Chicago area (including the really major ones like Mag Mile) have in-store pickup options for the watch.
I did this too, bought a 2nd watch w the standard option - not cancelling the 1st order though. Sometimes the shipping date changes to something earlier. But yeah, choosing custom bands delays the shipping. NEW THING I LEARNED.
I had to measure my wrist and buy the time I did that and do 2 watch orders there was no more in store stock and my ship date is November 2-9.
Do you think there will be in store stock next week and I could line up early Friday and buy 2 watches in store then cancel my November order?

Ha ha... been there, done that. In fact, it happens more often than not. Experience not limited to Watch.
What a morning! I was originally ordering the midnight but no delivery...only pick-up. The nearest store is far but I was going to suck it up and drive...went through the entire process only to have it tell me it is not available and I would have to pick up at another location 20 minutes further. I gave up!!! Then I tried to go for a different color (Starlight) and it was available for delivery in early November. Since I am not in a BIG hurry, I went that route. I was undecided between midnight and starlight for weeks but I ended up with starlight as a process of elimination. I hope I like it!

Wow. How did you pull that off? I checked multiple titanium combinations, and I couldn’t find anything with a delivery in October.
Catching up the earlier pages - saw that about the Type R...starlight case/band would have gone well w Champ White, eh?
Team Blue!
Damn. I think the Baltic blue leather loop is now just straight up unavailable. A shame, it’s a really class combo with the stainless steel. Maybe it (the SS model) just wasn’t meant to be for me this year.
Had to scramble and order in Starlight.. Interested to see it in person and how gold it really is.. may end up returning it and just waiting on a SS otherwise.
