BAND WITH FOLDED SEAM FOR AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE
First Claim
1. A wearable band comprising:
- a first material having a first thinned portion formed on a first surface at a first end of the first material;
a second material having a second thinned portion formed at a second surface at a second end of the second material; and
a coupling component coupling the first end to the second end;
whereinthe first thinned portion of the first material is folded onto itself; and
the second thinned portion of the second material is folded onto itself.

Abstract
A wearable band formed from two or more pieces of material is disclosed. The wearable band may include a first material having a thinned portion formed on an inner surface and adjacent an end of the first material, and a second material positioned adjacent to the first material. The second material may include a thinned portion formed on an inner surface and adjacent an end of the second material. The wearable band may also include a coupling component configured to couple the first material to the second material. The thinned portion of the first material may be folded onto itself, and the thinned portion of the second material may be folded onto itself.

8. A method for forming a wearable band for an electronic device, comprising:
-
thinning a first end of a first band portion to form a first thinned portion; thinning a second end of a second band portion to form a second thinned portion; positioning the first end of the first band portion adjacent to the second end of the second band portion; affixing the first thinned portion of the first band portion to the second thinned portion of the second band portion using a coupling component; folding the first thinned portion of the first band portion about the coupling component and onto itself; and folding the second thinned portion about the coupling component and onto itself. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A wearable electronic device comprising:
-
a housing; a display positioned within the housing; and a wearable band coupled to the housing and comprising; a first material forming a top layer of the wearable band, the first material having a thinned portion formed at a first end; a second material positioned adjacent the first material and forming at least a portion of a bottom layer of the wearable band and having a second thinned portion at a second end of the second material; a coupling component formed through the thinned portion of the first material and the thinned portion of the second material to couple the first material to the second material, wherein the first and second thinned portions are folded to form a seam. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
