Almost ordered 2 by accident. Got confirmation at 8:04 for a silver aluminium GPS only model with seashell loop. Wanted to upgrade to SS this year but cost/depreciation put me off somewhat.

Suddenly my order does not show up in the iphone app anymore. Anyone with similar experience ?
If I click on the order number in the email confirmation is shows up ?
I havent seen this before.
Don’t suppose you bought via desktop and paid via Apple Pay on an iOS device did you?

Gone for the Silver Aluminium GPS+Cellular. Used the Apple Store app when it finally went live at about 8:11 for me. Only 7 days to wait!
Finally letting go of my Series 0

I think those of us S0 folks are going to have to force ourselves to relearn how to use it considering the humongous performance jump over the years.

Order confirmation at 8.07 for a Space Grey Aluminium 44mm GPS+Cellular with black sports loop. Delivery 26.09 - 01.10.

Will be a huge jump from my s0. Can't wait to use my watch for other things, not just to tell the time!

Anyone else got "This item will take longer than usual to ship. As soon as it’s ready, we’ll send you an update and prepare the shipment." on their order status page?

40mm Space Gray for 21/09. The order status is still "Order placed", even though I placed it at 08:13 (UK time).

44mm silver SS with sport band, delivery 1-8 Oct. Gutted I couldn't get release day but hoping it gets bumped as I fly to Germany for 3 days on the 1st!

I ordered at 08:02 for a SS with Sports Band and it said 21/09, when I got my email is says 01/10-08/10, pretty annoyed! I was originally going to go for the SS gold with Milanese, but that started with a delivery 27/09-01/10.

Ordered my 44 SS with White Sport at 08:10 and delivery 1-8 Oct :(

I was faffing with my work perks website which showed a £15 discount on the apple care yesterday, but today no discount at all. Could have just ordered via the Apple Store app. Grrrrrrrr.

Website wouldn't come up for me until 8.11am and the only watch available for delivery on the 21st was the 44mm Black SS, but needed both the 44mm and 40mm Stainless Steels so left with my tail between my legs.

Managed to now find another site Very, which claims to deliver the 44mm Stainless Steel on the 24th, so ordered one from there. You guys can try there too if you fancy your chances. They don't have any other SS though, in any other colour or size.. Shame. Still need to find a 40mm SS. Might try a walk-in next Friday lunchtime if feeling brave.

My first order didn't let me pickup from store but my second I've managed to and had to choose a pickup window. Did anyone else manage to choose pickup?

If you don't have any luck with walk-ins.... John Lewis have listings up (will go on sale 21st) with delivery for 22nd. Might be worth a shot if all else fails

Ordered AW 4 Nike+, 44mm, GPS, space grey Aluminium Case with Anthracite/Black Nike Sport Band. Delivery anytime between 8-15 oct :rolleyes:.

What a pity they didn't offer Stainless steel only with GPS connectivity, I really don't need cellular version - iPhone x with me all the times.

Ordered at 8:05 this morning, one Apple Watch Series 4 GPS, 44mm Space Grey Aluminium Case. It'll replace my S1 and will be mostly worn with the black leather loop (I ordered Space Grey again mostly cos I think it goes best with that band). Delivery scheduled for Friday 21st.

I had pickup selected (from Leeds at 10:30 time slot) but then the app declined Apple Pay and kicked me back, by that point could only go for delivery on the 21st. 44mm Space Grey Aluminium.

From looking at Youtube hands on videos the Stainless steel models look the same level of shiny as previous series.

I ordered 44mm Stainless with white sports band.

Im in Ireland, so ordered from UK store, as stainless isn't available in Ireland as we don't have any carriers offering phone service on the watch here.

Nike + 40mm Space Grey ordered 8th-15th Oct shipping.

Went for the 40mm as I think my 42mm Series 2 feels big enough as it is, hope I don't regret that decision but I feel the 44mm looks a bit too big.

It's shiny (chrome-esque) like previous models, not like the matte aluminium.

Yeah it was completely greyed out the first time but my second order I've done it and it's moved to the processing stage so I've took that as a good sign... I've just cancelled my first order now so hopefully someone else will get it sooner!

I ordered the 44 SG cellular (still not sure about the cellular decision) with a loop, because I already have a sports band, but because I had to order with finance (meaning I couldn't use the app) and the website didn't load until 10 past, the shipping date was mid-October.

So instead I went back and ordered a sports band for store collection on the 24th and cancelled the loop. Would rather get it sooner than go for a different band just for the sake of it.
