PURPOSE: To enhance the ornamentability of an arm band and to make this arm band usable as a bracelet as well by opening the ends of an elastic annular core plate, covering the outside surface of this core plate with a beautiful fabric, sticking a rough surface resistance tape to the inner peripheral surface and cladding metallic crown parts at the open ends.

CONSTITUTION: The reduced-diameter annular elastic core plate 1 consisting of an elastic rigid plastic plate of ABS, etc., or elastic metallic plate is formed to a shape opened at the ends. The entire surface of such core plate 1 is coated with the beautiful fabric, such as silk fabric. At this time, the ends 4, 4 at the fabric edges of the beautiful fabric 3 are fixed by the double coated adhesive tape 5 on the inner peripheral surface of the core plate 1 to form an annular body 6 coated with the fabric. The core plate 1 is formed to a semicircular shape in sectional shape having roundness as a whole. The rough surface resistance tape 7, such as Grosgrain tape, is stuck to the inner peripheral surface of the annular body 6 coated with the fabric and the metallic crown part 8 formed to a curved shape at the outside ends is stuck via adhesives to the open ends.
