While I all for that, UPS hasn’t gotten that message yet, no update since arrival scan last night. I think our Ultras are having a party in KY ;)

Yeah, there's zero chance of that happening. The delivery plan is already in motion.

My Ultra appears to be in Louisville, KY with a 23rd delivery. This is a 0.6 KG package shown as “AI” in UPS My Choice app. .6 seems a little heavy. I wonder if that is my iPhone 14 PM? There is a 0.4 KG “AI” UPS package in Korea showing delivery on 26th.

My iPhone 14 Pro Max came in the same shipment as my Apple Watch ultra. I follow their process with the amazing UPS app. They were on the same plane they came through from China to South Korea to Alaska to Kentucky. However, I am in Michigan and my iPhone showed up yesterday and my Apple Watch ultra is still in Kentucky. So I have a feeling they are holding them until Friday which is the official release date. I could be wrong.

I bet you’re right, Friday it will be
 
My delivery date has been all over the place this week. It was end of October and now says 2-3 weeks even though it says "preparing to ship", not sure what's going on but I hope it's not some glitch in the system and my watch is still in the dreaded "processing" stage.

Its after 5pm here in NJ and doesn't show shipped. It will be impressive if that sucker shows up the 23rd! Apple must be subcontracting Santa for all these worldwide deliveries!

Yea if all these deliveries are happening Friday, FedEx and UPS will be overwhelmed.

It’ll change to Shipped on Apple’s site once it clears customs in Louisville. It’s been the same way way for a few years. Carriers typically already have their stock in the US, so many people may not get tracking until 1-2 days before delivery.

My Ultra shows .6 and it’s arriving on the 23rd.

I posted on the delayed delivery thread that mine moved back in the right direction (now 10/3-10/7) and my order is preparing to ship. And credit card just charged.

For those asking to see pictures of the early ATT watches on peoples’ wrists, keep in mind that the Apple watch always looks bigger than in real life in these watch selfie pics (in my opinion).
 
Any one have any idea how long I could possibly sit in “preparing to ship”?
Mine it has been preparing to ship since Thursday last week my Apple Card has been charged since. So no worries have you check UPS my choice. It gave me a piece of mind knowing that already is the US waiting for local customs. 2 more days
 
My Yellow AWU has stayed in preparing to ship and the date still remains the 23rd, at this point I assume that will be correct. Today is the first day I am a little anxious to get it! Come on Santa!
 
My Orange Ultra that was Oct 3-10 which became Oct 6-13 is now Oct 4-10 and has moved to preparing to ship 😂

Was planning to go to the store Friday morning to see if I could purchase one there but I guess I should wait to see what happens now that I have moved to PTS.

No complaints here! Will be curious to see someone else in the same delivery window get some tracking information and I will be sure to share if my status changes
