Apple Watch 3 9-17 order

AW3 silver aluminum 42mm Seashell Sport Loop  LTE

------------------------------------------------------------------

I placed my order on 9-17, so am behind the glut of 9-15 orders.  My confirmation email shows a "delivery BY" date (not a ship by date) of 10-11. 

1.  If I go to the Order Status link on the bottom of my account page, it says "

In-store pickup

  Store Detail Not Available 

But it should ship to my house, not a store. There isn't a store in my town.

2.  Folks on forums seemed to be getting updated shipping dates in their accounts online.  If I go to Status, Orders at the top of my account page, I see that my order is "processing."  I realize it will stay this way until it's shipped. 

But my question is under the Shipment #1, it says in RED, "Please check back later for an updated order status."  Is this where updated shipping estimates would be shown?  How long does that take to change?  It's been 6 days already.

3. Is there now an actual delivery estimate on my order?  If so, what is it?

I got mine yesterday!  Set up was easy, as Verizon had already added the AW3 to my iPhone account.  All I had to do was decide whether to start fresh or install a backup from my previous AW2.  I did the backup and the new watch cloned the old one and everything worked first try - even LTE.

LTE was already working due to Verizon's previous linking.  It came with about 93% of battery life, so I didn't have to charge it before using it.  Since I was playing around, I decided to charge it overnight.  I've been able to get away with charging my AW2 just every other day - wearing it all the time except for charging and showers. It looks like this one may match that, as I'll run it with LTE turned off except for making calls.

One thing that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere is that you can keep 2 (or more maybe) watches linked to your iPhone.  I've read only 1 can do this.  But once I got mine setup, I could see that the iPhone gives a choice of which Watch you want linked currently.  You can only one at a time, but you can easily switch back and forth if you want.

I ordered mine on the 16th and was wondering the same. Any way I can get an update on my order as well?

OP here.  My AW3 just shipped this morning.  FedEx has it and will deliver it on Friday.  FWIW my shipping status in my online account hasn't changed.  Still says it's processing.

Thats awesome! Congrats. Which one did you order? Mine still isn't showing anything. I ordered the 42mm Aluminum in Space Grey with black sport band.
