Thanks for the heads up! Never ordered pre release stuff from them before.
I ordered my AW Ultra Trail Loop Black/Gray in the early morning of September 7, 2022. When I placed the order the estimated delivery was October 20th - 27th. Friday September 16th that date slipped to October 25th - November 1. WOW, anyone else experience this change. I thought it would actually ship earlier, thought Apple was just be conservative. Disappointed to say the least, my wife's AW Ultra White Ocean will be delivered September 23rd. 🤪
Since I cancelled the Ultra order and went with the new S8 I looked at the Black/Gray Trail Loop I originally wanted with the Ultra. Mid-November delivery! It's like Apple hasn't even started getting them yet. I'll just check at my local Apple Store once I have the S8. But the band choice with the Ultra is clearly what's holding up so many orders.
I ordered one of the SKUs they had for day-1 delivery, will just pick up the trail loop later when they become available in stores.
The more pictures of the Ultra I see, the more I'm convinced my cancelling my preorder was the right decision. I cannot get used to the big square bulge next to the crown. Very "un-Apple" to release something without clean lines. Looks like an unfinished design to me.
That’s great! Maybe I’ll get mine sooner. I’ll like something a little different rather than what everyone else has. Even if it won’t see the deep ocean ever. 🤣
The bummer about ordering through my carrier is missing out on the tracking fun! I haven’t participated in the tracking party since iPhone 12.
Also, it totally feels like I ordered this thing like 2 months ago!! Hahaha. Loooong wait. I’m extremely impatient.

The design is perfect for what it is intended to do. and the fact that sapphire glass is tucked in from the corners (design flaw on all other Apple Watches) is a beautiful thing. Wont need a case or screen protector.
They sell them, as well as cases. But I never saw the need for either. Maybe if you work a "dirty job."
I got mine (just the band) from Amazon with delivery for Oct 3rd. They still have some with delivery for Oct 7th.
Apple Watch Band - Trail Loop (49mm) - Black/Gray - S/M
The thin, lightweight Trail Loop is made from a soft double-layer nylon weave, with a convenient pull tab for quick adjustments on the go. The Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and Ocean Band are designed for Apple Watch Ultra and pair best with the 49mm case size. The bands are also compatible with 44mm ...

I looked at each selection (small, medium, large) on Apple for that AWU band selection. It shows delays until October (at least).
Thank you for the link just ordered mineI got mine (just the band) from Amazon with delivery for Oct 3rd. They still have some with delivery for Oct 7th.

Gotta love T mobile. Just got an email saying “congrats your order has shipped”. Check it and it’s for my iPhone 14 that arrived Friday
Looks like us Wave 2 folks have now joined our Wave 1 brothers and sisters in Shanghai!
