Mine just arrived, although it was due for delivery tomorrow. I received shipping preparation notification on Saturday and the actual tracking yesterday (with the updated delivery date of today).

Gold 40mm series 6 with pink sand strap (excuse the smudge on the case in the first pic) and the gold is more distinctive than I thought from some previous comments, so I'm really happy with that :)

I ordered a charcoal braided solo loop, which had an estimated delivery of mid to late November. It has now gone to preparing for shipment, hopefully will arrive much quicker.

Mine is still showing as shipping notification received in Eindhoven. But the charge has finally gone on to credit card. The pending one dropped off transactions a few days ago.
Similar status here, I've just fished out my old tracking thread from my MBP a few months ago, which was the same situation (no update until Eindhoven), it was:
Tracking info/shipped on 6th June via DHL.
No change in tracking until 10th June (shortened: basically when DHL tracking woke up)
Arrived 11th June.

So I'd say - allowing +- a day for cargo plane departures, it should be delivered between 6 and 7 days after it shipped. My case that would be this Friday. Apple says following Tuesday, so not a bad estimate in case of customs delays.

The little map thing on DHL has disappeared, I'm guessing he's way behind schedule as he was still only on number 59 about 10 minutes ago...

This was 9am-ish

Mine has changed to "arriving soon" which is the definition of optimistic as its in Korea today.

Yay my watch and braided strap has just arrived. So Happy - the strap fits perfectly. I had a 20cm wrist so got a size 12 and it is perfect..

Lucky you, I’m still waiting for mine! Says before three and it’s only 35 minutes left!

Just received my blue watch & braided solo loop. Ordered a size 9 but after checking the Apple guide it said I needed a size 11. But the 9 fits fine so much for the size guide. At least I can take my size 11 strap back to store without having to take the watch back as well. Loving the blue colour.

Massive fan of the Graphite SS watch I bought at the Manchester Arndale store on Saturday - really like how subtle it is compared to the silver SS S4 I previously had.

I got it with the Milanese Loop but also bought a leather strap on Amazon to go with it and I really like the combination - the lugs are black so not an exact match for the graphite but I can’t really tell when wearing it.

It will be interesting to see if third parties can match the precise colour of the Graphite DLC in the near future?

If you talk to car repair experts they often say silver is the hardest colour to match.

Is your strap upside down?

Dates are moving quickly. My daughter ordered a stainless steel watch with sport band last night and had an delivery date of the 27th October and this afternoon it's jumped forward to the 6th October. Thats nearly three weeks.

Mine arrived about an hour and a half ago via UPS. I was getting worried about it not arriving, but I’m really pleased it got here

So odd, I ordered a sport loop and braided loop yesterday. Sport loop due to be delivered 25-28 September and is sitting at processing. Whilst the braided due to be delivered end of November, but that's now sitting at preparing to ship! Honestly very confusing.
