An anti-theft assembly for deterring theft of a ring is provided. The anti-theft assembly includes a base that can be used to support an electronic article surveillance marker; a product engagement member including a support member that supports the ring during use and a locking member that secures the support member to the base; and an attachment member for securing the ring to the support member. In one embodiment, the support member and the locking member are a single, unitary member. In another embodiment, the support member and the locking member are separate members. Once assembled, upon applying a twisting force to the ring the engagement member rotates within the opening so that the attachment member is not broken.

A kit includes one or more pairs of matching color-coded attachment members and tags. The attachment member is configured to be selectively retained to an electrical wire entering an electrical service panel. The corresponding color-coded tag is configured to be attached, such as through magnetic means, to a door of the electrical service panel. The tag includes pre-printed text thereon, which provides descriptive information regarding the electrical circuit formed by the wire to which the attachment member is associated. As such, the color-coding allows a homeowner or technician to easily identify which electrical circuit is controlled by a particular electrical circuit breaker.

An adjustable electronic tag device for a suitcase or luggage includes an electronic tag provided with a fixing assembly thereon. The fixing assembly fixes the electronic tag to the suitcase.

A method is for the production, recognition, identification, reading and traceability of a seal or label (4). The method includes preparing a mold (64) for the seal or label (4), injecting inside a molding chamber (68) of the mold (64) a first material constituting a matrix (72) of the seal or label (4). A second, tracking material is injected inside the molding chamber (68) of the mold (4). The second, tracking material (76) is mixed into the matrix (72) at random, creating a pattern inside the matrix (72). The pattern defines a marking (16) of the seal or label (4).

Disclosed is a tamper proof tag and accompanying method for verifying that a watch is authentic and has not been tampered with. The tamper proof tag, when affixed to the watch, ensures that the watch is authentic and prevents a user from tampering with the watch. The tamper proof tag also allows the watch to be worn while the tamper proof tag is affixed to watch and is minimally obstructive to the aesthetics of the watch. This provides a purchasing user with confidence that the watch is authentic, while also allowing the user to try on the watch without having to remove the tamper proof tag. The tamper proof tag also protects the seller from a user that may attempt to tamper with the watch after purchase. For example, the seller may condition returns for a sold watch on the tamper proof tag remaining affixed to the watch.

A band seal having a strap including a head portion, a tail portion and a middle portion, a retainer, an adhesive pad and a release liner secured to the adhesive pad, wherein the band seal is positionable into three positions including a pre-attached position wherein the middle portion of the strap is in a non-looped orientation, a temporary position wherein the middle portion of the strap is in a looped orientation and the retainer holds the middle portion in this looped orientation with the tail portion being concentric with the middle portion, and an attached position wherein the release liner is removed from the adhesive pad and the tail portion is secured to the adhesive pad.
