Apple Watch shipments are now being sent to centralized distribution points across the U.S, reports MacRumors. The pre-order shipments are being prepared for delivery on April 24, according to a source.

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus pre-orders began switching from "Processing Items" to "Preparing for Shipment" on the Apple Online Store for several customers on the Monday prior to Friday delivery, so customers that pre-ordered the Apple Watch early should see their order status change soon. Due to limited stock and the wide 4/24—5/8 delivery estimate for launch day pre-orders, however, there is a possibility that pre-order statuses may take longer to change.

Although the site's source assures them that bulk shipments have begun, we've yet to receive any shipment notifications from Apple. Have you noticed a change in your order status?

Nope, but I'm checking every 30 minutes to see if it will. Will keep updated!

I'm starting to think we won't be getting them by Friday if they haven't shipped yet.

Well, they have done miraculous things in the past. The update process with tracking isn't always real time tracking either, it could already be shipped and we not know it yet because of how many orders their handling. Their shipping is usually 2 day high priority.

Apple Watch Sports are shipping in Australia ready for Friday

So I guess you've been delivered.

MUKAI - April 22, 2015 at 3:31am

Actually you should ask your sister who was delivered first in my doorstep where she has been abused and used like this iwatch

I just got mine delivered and it came damaged, it was smashed beyond recognition,it was left on my door steps boxed all caved in and crushed, it was delivered by FEDEX, so now what...

Shama - April 21, 2015 at 3:40am

They charged me for the 38 only and now preparing for shipping.

oheenalu - April 20, 2015 at 11:17pm

So my 38mm is preparing to ship but not my 42mm frustrating but hopefully will get at least one of them on friday.

Mine just says processing

Debby Harasen - April 20, 2015 at 8:42pm

Mine still says processing. I have a delivery date of 24/4-8/5. No change.

FIGHTER PILOT - April 20, 2015 at 8:35pm

I GOT MY CONFIRMATION EMAIL @3:02AM (I'M ON THE EAST COAST) AND MINE STILL SAYS PROCESSING. DELIVERY DATE STILL SHOWS 4/24 - 5/8!!

MacGeeks - April 20, 2015 at 7:46pm

Nope, mine still says Processing Items and I haven't been charged yet. The delivery date has yet to change though, still says 4/24-5/8. I'm hoping it was like the iPhone 6/6 Plus and actually gets delivered the day of.

Fighter Pilot - April 20, 2015 at 10:36pm

Do you recall what day they started giving tracking number when the iPhone 6/Plus started shipping?

MacGeeks - April 21, 2015 at 11:59am

It was usually the second or third day after your card was charged. If you received the update yesterday and were charged, you more than likely will receive it Friday r Saturday.

SoCalAppleWatch - April 20, 2015 at 7:23pm

I havent even been billed yet. And mine still says Processing Items.
