A flexible jewelry cable includes a plurality of helical links. Each link has a body that extends helically about a central axis of the link. Each link includes a protrusion extending from an inner surface of the body at or near ends of the body. Each protrusion defines a through hole that is coaxially aligned with the body. The body defines a female recess on the inner surface of the body, each recess corresponding to one protrusion. The recesses are at or near the ends of the body. One recess of a first one of the links is configured to receive one protrusion of a second one of the links and align the hole of the received protrusion with the hole of one protrusion of the first link. The cable includes a string extending through the aligned holes of the protrusions of the links.

A wrist band for attaching a portable electronic device to a user includes articulating segments which may be releasably connected so as to provide the user the capability of sizing the wristband by adding or removing links as desired. A clasp is also disclosed for securing the wristband to a user. A manufacturing device and method are disclosed for machining complex surfaces on the segments and clasp.

The present invention relates to a band assembly including a first outer connecting portion and a second outer connecting portion disposed to face each other, wherein the first outer connecting portion includes a first fastening hole and the second outer connecting portion includes a third fastening hole, an inner connecting portion disposed between the first outer connecting portion and the second outer connecting portion, wherein the inner connecting portion includes a second fastening hole that corresponds to the first fastening hole and the third fastening hole, and a rechargeable battery inserted into the first fastening hole, the second fastening hole, and the third fastening hole to connect the first outer connecting portion, the inner connecting portion, and the second outer connecting portion.
