Smart band platform VW-B1
A slim 1.47-inch colour band built for continuous wear and long battery life. The lowest cost per unit in our range, which makes it the right platform for high-volume programmes, subscription bundles and retail multipacks.

Figures shown are the standard configuration used for quotation. Confirmed values are stated in your written quotation and frozen at golden-sample approval.
Five levels of change, and what each one costs you in time.
On a band, L1 and L2 carry most of the value: strap colour and packaging do more for shelf presence than any change to the electronics.
| Level | What changes | Tooling | Added lead time |
|---|---|---|---|
| L1 · Branding only | Logo on the case back, your UI theme and watch-face set, your app name and icon, your retail packaging. Runs on existing tooling. | None | +0 days |
| L2 · Housing & finish | Strap colour and material, case colour, electroplated or soft-touch frame, buckle type. | Modified tooling | +7–15 days |
| L3 · Sensor configuration | Add skin-temperature sensing or extra optical channels on the standard board, including firmware and algorithm integration. | None (board-level) | +10–20 days |
| L4 · New industrial design | A new band shape or display size built from your ID drawings, with a full validation cycle. | New injection tooling | +30–45 days |
| L5 · Full ODM programme | We take the product from specification through certification to mass production — firmware, companion app, packaging and compliance documentation included. | New tooling | Programme schedule |
Added lead time is measured on top of the standard 25–35 day production window and starts from approval of the change, not from enquiry.
