Shipping Estimates for Every 42mm Apple Watch and Apple Watch Sport Slip to July

Apple appears to be running out of supply of the 42mm Apple Watch. Shipping estimates for every model of the Apple Watch and Apple Watch Sport have now been pushed back to July.

Previously, many 42mm models had a shipping date of 4-6 weeks out or June. Now the online Apple Store indicates that every single variation of the 42mm Apple Watch and Apple Watch Sport won't ship until July.

The delay is notable considering Tim Cook just announced that Apple was hoping to expand the sale of the Apple Watch to other countries in late June. That may be rushing things a bit considering online orders are already in July and the smartwatch isn't even available in stores yet.

Recent reports suggest that the low supply of Apple Watch units is due to manufacturing issue with the watch's taptic engine.
