Hello! We are two women who love fashion, technology, and fitness, and we understand the power of looking great and feeling great. We love our Fitbit trackers that help keep us active, but the rubber bracelet...? Well, not so much.
Our solution is a line of chic bracelets and necklaces that house the Fitbit Flex tracker, so you can make every step count in style. Now your Fitbit can look as good as the rest of you! We are producing an assortment in a range of styles, from classic chic to downtown edgy. We've also created earrings to pull your entire look together.

The stud double wrap bracelet is an eye-catcher. We think you'll love how this bracelet, with its 12K gold studs, black leather band, and your Fitbit inside, will make every step just a bit bolder! The leather band wraps twice around your wrist and has a double snap closure to make it extra comfortable. The interior circumference is 13.5" long with 2 snaps closed or 14.25" long with 1 snap closed. It's lightweight at 1.4 ounces.
Basketweave Single Wrap Bracelet, $78
Includes free US shipping.

We love the combination of the classic basketweave next to the modern black leather band and 12K gold plating, making this style feel fresh and polished. The leather band wraps around once for those who like a slim profile, and it's comfortable to wear with its double snap closure. (Please note that some photos show a double wrap leather bracelet, but the final product will be a single wrap leather bracelet.) The interior circumference is 7.4" long with 2 snaps closed or 7.8" long with 1 snap closed. It's lightweight at 1.2 ounces.
Stud Pendant Necklace in Gold or Silver, $88
Includes free US shipping.

Free your wrist! This pendant is lightweight and designed to lay flat when worn around your neck. We love how the 18K plating and stud accents brighten up your face for an instant glow. And when you hit your goal and the lights flash, it won't be your imagination that you're emitting a glow from within! The necklace is 20 inches long (shown on-figure in the photo above) and comes with a 4 inch extender for those who want a longer option. Note that the correct chain is the thinner style that is shown on the silver pendant. It's super light and comfortable at 0.9 ounces. This style is made in the USA.
New Style! Single stud earring, $25
Includes free US shipping.

Pull your entire look together with a single pyramid earring. This goes perfectly with all our pieces and is a wonderful update to the basic stud earring. It's made of brass and plated in 12K gold.
Triple Stud Earring, $25
Includes free US shipping.
![]()
This piece goes with all our jewelry and will pull your look together. We love this earring because it's basic enough for everyday, but the studs add just the right amount of edge. The earrings are imported and plated in 12K gold.
Other newly added perks:
1) Can't decide between two styles or want to give Bezels & Bytes for Valentine's Day or Mother's Day? Save $10 by purchasing the specific "Add On" perk after your first bracelet or necklace purchase.
2) Add any of our earrings for $10 (regularly $25). Purchase the "Add On: Earring" perk. We will confirm your Single or Triple Stud choice at the end of the campaign.
What We Need & What You Get
We are seeking $20,000 to fund tooling and rounds of samples for our Fitbit Flex accessories assortment. We've placed an initial order for many of these styles, so our first customers will receive their product in April!
Almost all our styles feature windows that align with your tracker, so you can see the progress lights when you tap on the piece. Fun, right?! We've also designed these pieces so that your Fitbit Flex tracker will sit securely within the jewelry but be easy to insert and remove. And don't worry, you will feel and hear the rewarding buzz through our jewelry when you've hit your daily step goal!
Please note that the Fitbit Flex is NOT included in any of the styles. You can purchase the Flex separately.
Risks & Challenges
We have been very pleased with the quality of our samples but need to ensure quality is maintained for a larger production run. In particular, we want to ensure doors for the tracker open easily and that the tracker stays inside when we produce on a larger scale.
The other risk is how our jewelry wears over time. We have worked with the factory on a plating thickness that will hold up to our active customer's lifestyle, but we will continue to monitor as time goes on. We have been wearing our samples non-stop for the past month, and they are looking great so far!
We recommend that you wear Bezels & Bytes styles for fashion and not intense physical activity (though we have tested them under such conditions and they hold up great!).
Don't forget! Our jewelry does NOT include the Fitbit Flex tracker. You can purchase the Flex separately here.
Our brand: Bezels & Bytes

By funding this campaign (thank you!), you will not only launch our assortment for the Fitbit Flex, but also launch the Bezels & Bytes brand. As women on the go, we need technology at our fingertips to get things checked off our lists and to multi-task. Our vision is to create tech-friendly fashion and accessories, so you can stay connected while looking polished and put together.

FAQ
What is your return policy?
We want you to be absolutely delighted with the product you receive and be rewarded for taking a chance on our new company. If you are not satisfied within 10 days of receiving the product, simply email us and we will find a solution.
Where is your jewelry manufactured?
We are testing factories and currently working with two in the USA and one in Asia.
Will my tracker be accurate in the jewelry?
We have worn trackers in our jewelry alongside trackers in the rubber bracelet, and the results are almost identical. Just like when wearing the Fitbit tracker, steps vary person to person and with various activities. Note that for the necklace, we designed it to lay flat when walking; If you are active to the point your necklace is jumping up and down, accuracy will likely be compromised.
