When Apple Stores will have Apple watch 8

[AppleUser29912]

So just went to the local Apple Store and they said they are out of stock for Apple watch 8.
Checking Apple website, it says all nearby stores are also out of stock.

When a product launches, how long after the launch, you can go to the store and buy the product?
Delivery right now is Oct 17.

Usually stores will restock weekly or so, weekdays before lunch or towards mid-afternoon IIRC (depends on location). I would expect the different models to restock at different rates as well. Best bet while delivery is a month out is to keep checking for store pickup options.

Those stores are out of stock for all model / band combinations? That’s surprising to me, because the three stores nearest to me seem to have a bunch of models in stock. They don’t have the link bracelets or Hermes models, though.

I'm in the same boat. Didn't order early enough for launch day delivery so I waited in hopes of doing in-store pickup. I check multiple times a day but all three Apple Stores in my area say unavailable. This is for a SS graphite with graphite milanese loop in central FL.

Over here in SF, none whatsoever for 41mm SS.. been checking and none in stock. Was hoping to cancel my order and hop into a store and do pickup but no luck yet

Same here in Canada. They have Aluminum GPS only. I was hoping for SS 8 with cellular unfortunately none in store nor the aluminum cellular models. Very frustrating. I’m thinking Apple may hold off
On SS and push the Ultra instead. Guess we
Will find out Friday.
