FIG. 1 is a rear view of a wristband with fitness monitoring capsule.

FIG. 2 is a left side view of the wristband of FIG. 1 .

FIG. 3 is a front view of the wristband of FIG. 1 .

FIG. 4 is a right side view of the wristband of FIG. 1 .

FIG. 5 is a bottom view of the wristband of FIG. 1 .

FIG. 6 is a top view of the wristband of FIG. 1 .

FIG. 7 is an isometric view of the wristband of FIG. 1 with the straps of the wristband clasped together to form a loop that may be worn around a person's wrist.

FIG. 8 is an isometric view of the wristband of FIG. 1 ; and,

FIG. 9 is an isometric exploded view of the wristband of FIG. 1 showing the fitness monitoring capsule, the wristband frame, the spring bars, and the front and rear wristband straps.

FIGS. 1 through 9 are drawn to-scale within each Figure, although the scale from Figure to Figure may vary.

Stipple shading is used in the accompanying Figures to convey surface contouring, not texture. The fitness monitoring capsule that is inserted into the wristband frame of the wristband may additionally have a transparent or translucent (although perhaps smoked or tinted) window that allows a display within the fitness monitoring capsule to be seen by the wearer. This window is not stipple shaded in the accompanying Figures, but is rendered with diagonal line hatching.

Features depicted using broken lines and a lack of shading indicate environmental structure that is unclaimed. For example, various logos and other text are shown in broken lines and with a lack of shading; in such cases, the unshaded regions around such logos or text are enclosed in a rectangular border that represents the boundary between a claimed portion of the depicted design and the unclaimed portion of the depicted design. Dash-dot-dash lines are used to indicate directions/paths along which the various components shown in the exploded view of FIG. 9 may be moved in order to assemble those components into the wristband of FIG. 1 .
