    Abstract: A wristband (108) can comfortably secure an electronic device (100), such as a wristwatch or fitness/health tracking device, to a wrist (2) of a user. The wristband (108) can include a number of magnets that allow the wristband (108) to be magnetically coupled to itself when folded over or when separate band portions are overlapping. The magnets can include a polymer mixed with a magnetic material to provide magnetic properties and flexibility. The magnets can be joined together by a continuous support structure that extends through opposing pairs of the magnets. The support structure can provide substantial and ability as well as tensile strength. The magnets and the support structure can be surrounded by a flexible cover to protect the components within.
