It's kind of my expectation as well which is why I ordered one. Just needed other options for bands to match the body better than the regular sizes.
I ordered that band separately and it should arrive on 9/23. Also ordered the black trail loop but that won't arrive until sometime in November.
Cool if you live near enough to an Apple Store that gas money won't be an added expense and if you order fast enough before the in-store pickup date slips into a month later.

Originally ordered the Apple Watch Ultra with the Orange Alpine Loop from Verizon with a 9/23 delivery date. I got a huge anxiety attack and ordered a L and I think I need a medium. So I placed an order for an Yellow Ocean band, and ill get the L swapped out for a medium
That’s the one I want to order too.
What’s your wrist circumference?
S sounds quite small…
I will do store pickup as there's no one home to accept delivery. I had planned on the alpine green but that's canvas.
The darker (midnight ocean) color is the 'diving' band but I have a feeling that this will make the watch that much more bulky looking.
Again, need to see one in person....

Waiting for my AW Ultra with green Alpine loop band to arrive on 23rd September. So excited for my new Watch! 😁
I wear an 8 braided solo loop - what size AWU band would you choose if you were me?
I like my bands a little loose

Not sure. I usually use the smaller version of the sport bands and have a bunch of slack left. I figure it it doesn't work out I can sell the band and get a different size when they are more readily available.
I keep reading posts that indicate a 23rd of Sept delivery date. I hate to burst happy bubbles but isn't the 23rd the shipping date which would mean delivery would be a few days later?
Oh wow, that's great news for me. Then I too will have the Ultra on the 23rd. Not getting my hopes too high though.
If your delivery date is the 23rd then yes you will definitely get it on the 23rd
I had ordered both but I kept it down to the offwhite alpine and midnight ocean. Had the green alpine but the color looked so bad on video and way dif color, the white ocean also looked worseCan you all help me decide? I like that the ocean band would probably be easier to clean (despite all of the tubes), but I prefer the off-white color and metal connector (to the case) of the alpine. Thanks in advance

I realized I'll be out of town the Friday for a wedding, does anyone have experience telling a carrier to "hold" the package for a few days? Or am I going to have to pray to the package gods that it will sit there for 3 days?
Technically speaking, now you can have a 49mm Ultra Nike Apple Watch since all Nike faces are available for all users with WatchOS 9.
Both FedEx and UPS will hold a package for for seven days, I believe UPS requires you to be a My Choice member. Not sure if FedEx has special requirements.
@NozzleDazzle You can also pay UPS a fee of $9.99 to have your package delivered another day without being a My Choice member.
If it is shipping via FedEx
