Depends what stage you're talking. If you mean from "with the factory" to "build week confirmed" then it is usually late on a Thursday, so you'd see the change Friday morning. For all the post build changes it's generally an overnight change following an event actually happening, like completion of build and all the stages of transit.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Aidey: If they're still running more than a week late, then the change to "build in progress" seems to happen on the Saturday night before the next BW commences. If yours changes next Saturday night/Sunday morning then chances are it is getting built a little behind schedule. My BW33 GTD was built Sunday/Monday of BW35 with the tracker changing to "build commenced" on the cusp of BW33 (Sat night) to  BW34(Sun morning).

Mine is still saying BW Confirmed, production week confirmed 01/09/13.  It has not changed to Build in progress yet. I will keep a close eye on it this week.
