That’s strange. My Verizon order from the morning of the 9th showed up by the morning of the 10th. It still says “Backorder”, but pretty sure that’s just like preorder. It’s on schedule to ship the 23rd. Though I wonder if it’ll be delivered on the 23rd. Haven’t ordered from a carrier in a long while.

eta: screenshot, and it says something a bit different when checking my order through chat. Pretty sure I’ll get it on the 23rd, 26th the latest.
With Verizon in my experience sometimes it ships in time to be delivered by the given date and sometimes not. In our situation I'm guessing it depends on when Apple delivers to Verizon? Also, yours and my activity could be different because I ordered over-the-phone through my business account rep. I'm counting on my rep to deliver as promised.

Maaaaaaannn I’m jealous… shouldn’t have cancelled my Ultra order :( I keep going back and forth on whether I should get it or wait for an SoC upgrade with Ultra 2

Yep, I ordered what they could deliver first and ordered two trail bands for delivery later. The Alpine will have to do for me or I will use my black leather magnetic loop for my series 7 Until the trial bands get shipped next month.

AWU with green Alpine loop is now "Preparing to Ship". Ordered pretty early on pre-order day. The midnight Ocean strap I ordered separately, with a 9/23 delivery date as well, is still in Processing. Now the constant refreshing of UPS's site commences!

Mine has also moved to Preparing to Ship. If these things go out tomorrow, you have to think that they’ll arrive sooner than expected, even if they’re shipping out of China.

I never go by band. I just get what's available and use a band I have, and/or get the bankd I want later.
Exactly what I do. Was the white ocean band my first choice? Nope. But it allowed me to get it on the 23rd. my first choice was the midnight ocean band. I ordered it separately along with 2 other bands that will arrive on the 23rd as well.
