I placed orders last week for a 44mm Charcoal Braided Solo Loop - Size 8 with a delivery estimate of November 9th - November 20th. I also placed an order for a Black Solo Loop with an estimated delivery window of October 21st - October 28th.
Has anyone seen any movement on Braided Solo Loops and Solo Loops?
Thanks.

I have the same issue except I ordered a Deep Navy Solo Loop, size 7, on 9/16. My confirmation email states "Delivers Sep 28-30", but at the moment the Apple Store says order is in progress, "Arrives Sep 25 - Oct 9".

I also purchased an Apple Watch Space Black Titanium with a Black Sport Band and it was delivered on 9/23. It came with two boxes. One box had the watch and what I would call a grey band, and the other box had the black band. This is my first Apple Watch, and so I'm not sure if this is typical when you order early.

I placed an order for a blue solo loop the day they were announced and have seen zero moment on my order. Said it was going to be delivered between 9/25-10/8. Since then I have received and returned a series 6 but no movement on the band!

I just checked my status and now it says “as soon as the item is ready, we’ll send you an update”. Before it said something along the lines of we have everything we need for your order. I wonder if this is indicative of about to ship.

I ordered the blue on 9/15 and got a 9/23-10/7 estimate. This morning it changed to 11/23-12/7. Weird, every Apple product I've had delivered (and I've had a lot, too many things from Apple according to my wife) has come early or on time. Well, then today my card was charged and the status changed to preparing for delivery. Dates are still 11/23-12/7. No big deal, but just a little weird.

My estimate was from Nov 16 to Dec 3. I fortunately found a charcoal braided sport loop (size 9) at my local apple store so bought it and canceled the online order. There are definitely units being shipped to retail stores.

Be sure to keep an eye on your local Apple stores. I was able to get an Atlantic Blue braided 44mm at an Apple store in Atlanta. It didn’t show available on the website, but I went in to verify what size I needed and they said they had stock. Website showed 6-8 weeks for delivery for the same item.

I placed order on Oct-1, no movement so far. Sales gimmick to make AW buyers to shell out more?

Mine is waiting at my doorstep, I can not wait to rip that box open and try it on! I’ve never been so excited for a band! I have a ton, but this one is special lol. Hope it’s as comfy as everyone says and fits well. Fingers crossed!

The quality isn’t 100 bucks nice. The fit is ok. I foresee them getting really dirty too. I guess time will tell if they get frayed or not.

I gotcha, they are pretty damn expensive. I would have thought $50 would be the prime price. I have a few of their leathers bands I really like and feel the $100 price tag is easier to swallow. I guess I’ll make my determination when I get home. Does it feel like it will hold up over time?

The fit feels firm...if thats the right word. I hope it holds up but honestly not sure.

Well the tool I was between 6 and 7. I got the 6 and I feel like it’s not snug enough. I’m cringing thinking of the wait for a size 5 if I return it. It doesn’t slide up and down my wrist but if I shake my arm it moves a little bit. It’s not snug, I’m not sure what I should do.
