Within 10 minutes of preorders opening up. Early enough that AT&T knew they oversold and couldn’t fulfill but strung me along regardless.

It definitely looks like the carriers may have underestimated demand for the new Apple Watch series, particularly the SS models. Congratulations to all of those who’ll be receiving their new watches today, and those who had their delivery dates adjusted to reflect early timeframes.
ATT usually never requires signature. My tracking (for all 3 items from them) does not say a signature is required.
put the tracking # into Fedex's site and it'll tell you if sig is required. mine is out for delivery on Fedex and sig is not required, so pretty sure ATT doesn't need a sig.
My watch was in the 9/24-10/1 delivery window. I got an email yesterday saying it shipped, and Fed Ex delivered it about an hour and a half ago. I was pretty excited it shipped early!
I’m sure I didn’t buy the most desireable watch, but it’s been my go-to for every version I’ve had (with the exception of one SS I didn’t keep because it was just heavier than I could get used to); silver aluminum. I got the 40mm with white sport band.
I won’t be actually doing anything with it until I get my phone later today and set it all up, but I am loving the look and feel of it - the size is awesome! I can’t wait to set it all up!

Mine has been stuck on preparing to ship for 2 days. Was supposed to be delivered today. Today’s delivery date has been removed and it doesn’t even have a date now.
I called and they said they are on backorder and when the next shipment comes in yours will go out.
I ordered at 12:13pst and I ordered the 44mm SBSS.

No change in mine, not that I excited any. But at least at the moment the date didn’t move back at all.
Mine was delivered a few hours ago. Love it. NYC delivery. I hope everyone gets theirs on time!
Just got my SB aluminum 44mm sport band watch all set up and service transferred. Can’t tell y’all how great the larger display is! Currently in the market for some kind of case skin and screen protector. Wish I could have justified the added expense of the SS model but when I see the cost details on my account I feel pretty darn good about my selection.
My series3 SS SB 42mm is being handed down to my daughter for whom no amount of protectors or skins would protect an aluminum watch on her wrist. Lolol

Exact same model here. Also with the exact same initial shipping dates. Also preparing to ship. Finally! Hopefully early next week.
AT&T previously screwed up my preorder with some bogus billing glitch which caused me to have to call in and give them another card to use. This had delayed my order for another 1-2 weeks. However I just received a shipping notice today with Monday delivery. Pleasantly surprised.
That’s good your status has moved. My oct 1-8 ship date is still the same. I think the watch I picked was the one they got the least in stock.
Mine finally moved to shipped this afternoon. It is scheduled for delivery tomorrow before 12:00pm, so only 12 hours later than the original estimate. I ordered a 44mm gold Alu with a pink sand sport band at 12:45am on 9/14.
