Anyone order the SS with the clover solo loop? 🤔

Kicking myself RN. Looked back at the screen recording of my order this morning and I realized that I was able to add my desired config to my cart for delivery 3 days after launch but my 5AM brain didn’t register that, so I deleted it and added something else. Ugh!!!

Congrats for those who can get it on launch day. I ordered mine within a minute but the ETA is 21 Oct. Crazy!

I ordered this same exact watch from Verizon about 3 hours after order time and I’m set for a launch day delivery

Do you guys getting SS and Ti mostly use the cellular function? I already have a s6 gold SS with a cellular connection so just couldn’t bring myself to shelling out an extra $5-600 CAD for the SS or Titanium. Some of those SS and titanium combos do look deadly though.

Really wish they had a wifi only SS or Ti that was a few bucks cheaper.
I do use the cellular a lot. If I go play golf or go skiing it's more convenient than bringing the phone and possibly losing, or breaking, it.
 
Ok here’s how f’upd Apple is with their inventory

right now I can order a Ti 45mm with a sport loop at Nov 2-9 delivery

if I change the band to a Midnight sports band. The arrival is Nov 16-23

but if I just order the midnight spots band it will get here Oct 13

yes I know the watches with bands come from overseas but why. Send two boxes.
It’s unnecessary for them to be processed together

It would be really nice if the watch could connect to CarPlay. Even around town I like to use GPS for local traffic. And not having to take my phone would be great.

Seems like there's plenty of stock at Walmart and Best Buy, at least for the base model I'm getting. But I wonder if this is accurate. I do know the Apple Store stock isn't necessarily indicative of availability elsewhere, so who knows.

I have an s5 SS and s5 ceramic, and just ordered an s7 Hermes...I'll never connect the cellular option for any of them. I always have my phone. I pay extra for the case material, not the cellular option.

My 41mm Midnight GPS with Dark Cherry Braided Solo Loop and 41mm Starlight GPS with English Lavender Sport Band are preparing to ship. No tracking showing up in the UPS app yet.
 
Question...

I was able to secure the watch I wanted for October 15th delivery.

I had to scramble, though, as I had no idea the SOLO band would be standard on the lowest-priced Stainless Steel watch.

I ordered a size 7 band just off the top of my head in order to secure the order.

I actually take a 5-6 band. Can I call Apple and have them change the band size prior to delivery?

If not, I am sure I can arrange a simple exchange.

I asked Apple today, and they confirmed that you can swap the band size through the phone/online or at a store. You can exchange bands entirely at a store, as long as they have them in stock.
 
I ordered the 41mm Silver Stainless Steel Case with Charcoal Braided Solo Loop. Email said October 15 delivery. Order status said January for awhile. Now it's back to October 15!

Currently on "processing". Hope it starts preparing to ship soon.
 
Did anybody manage a 45 SS For launch day? I got in the first minute and the dates had already slipped. By the time I’d settled on a confit (maybe five minutes) I was back to nov 2-8, aka exactly what it’s still saying if I ordered right now.
