Your replacement watch might be on the same flight as my replacement watch. Is yours via UPS?

All the stuff from China comes via UPS. Hopefully yours doesn't get delayed like mine did and took 5 days to leave Shanghai but only 1 day when it arrived in South Korea to my door.

Well according to the tracking, mine departed Suzhou, China at 4.30 UK time this morning. Not sure where it is headed at the moment

Smart decision my man, you sounded bummed about that 40mm "toy" ;) Noticed that UK apple stores are full of AW's. Might take a trip there for the weekend ;)
Im also thinking of getting the Nike version with sport loop probably.

Still no SS in 44 anywhere in the uk!

Seriously, what the X is going on, most UK stores have stock of 40mm SS but no 44's??!!

Just checked UP

Yeah the delivery status on UPS has changed from the 12th to “Information unavailable”.

Mine was released from customs agency in Shanghai just before 12pm today, and yeah the delivery date has gone missing on the UPS site and back to saying 16th-19th on Apple.

Yes mine was the same as it says it was released from customs just before 12pm. Trouble in Shanghai perhaps

Not necessarily, could be normal, the 12th might have been a place holder date that doesn’t take in account everything like customs and the 16-19 date Apple gives is maybe more realistic, will just have to see how it goes.

Think UPS has a problem in Shanghai. Happening all the time at the moment. All the delays are happening when they are going through the Shanghai hub.

Well just got confirmation it’s departed Shanghai saying delivery tomorrow, Friday, seems legit. Hope so.

Edit: just got cleared at Incheon, Korea.

Just received email from UPS about delivery tomorrow, hope both our replacements are good ones, what was wrong with your first one my I ask?
Click to expand...
Yep got an email and text too.
The glass was not flush with the case on three sides. Apple said that it shouldn't be like that and arranged a return. Never had an issue with any Apple products except watches. Always seems to takes a couple of replacements to get it right.

I wonder, whether a black milanese loop will look good on this bad boy!

If you’re thinking about getting one my advise you be get your order in ASAP. If it comes forward then great, if you find it else where then you can cancel the order.

My order jumped forward two weeks and arrives tomorrow. If you order now, you should get it in two weeks
Click to expand...

I'm not so sure about that as I'd assume that replacement devices get priority over regular orders. The 44 SSSB I ordered on the 26th is still showing as 25th October to the 1st of November delivery, with new orders listing 9th-16th of November.
