Apple Confirms Apple Watch Shipments ahead of Schedule
This afternoon Tim Cook and Co. confirmed that Apple Watch is being shipped ahead of the quoted shipping time for most customers. A spokesperson from BuzzFeed confirmed, “[Apple] is happy to be updating many customers today with the news that their Apple Watch will arrive sooner than expected.”
Furthermore, the spokesperson says Apple “is working to fill orders as quickly as possible based on the available supply and the order in which they were received,” and explained that Apple is aware that many customers have a long shipping time for their Watch pre-orders, and are thankful for your patience.
According to the Reddit subreddit, /r/AppleWatch, many customers who have May or June shipping dates began reporting that their Watch has changed from ‘Processing Items’ to ‘Preparing for Shipment.’ Though, it’s worth noting that most of these reports revolve around the Apple Watch Sport with silver casing (this excludes the Space Gray Apple Watch Sport model).
