It’s officially April 10th on the West Coast, which means the Apple Store is now open for Apple Watch preorders.
The Online Apple Store is still down for some visitors, but we were just able to place an order for the Apple Watch Sport 42mm Silver Aluminum Case. Shipping estimates are already slipping into May so you may want to hurry and get your order in sooner rather than later.
The Apple Store iOS app seems to be the easiest way to get an order in right now while the website is down. You can also schedule a try-on appointment to try on watches through the website or iOS app.

I got my green Sport model. One of the only ones with first day as an option. Black was 4-6 weeks when I saw the site go live.
Wow…by 12:20 PST, the space gray Sport model has already slipped to a June shipment time. I managed to get in immediately and got one for first day delivery. :)
I got my order after a few reloads, It’s my first time using Apple pay so I’m a little paranoid it didn’t work
Smooth sailing over here as well. Ordered via the IOS app at 11:03am Alaska time. Delivery date for a Sport Black 42mm is April 24 – May 8.
