1. A method of manufacturing, comprising:
positioning a deformable band through an inner circumference of an inner housing member of a wearable ring device;
stretching the deformable band to create tension in the deformable band across at least a portion of the inner housing member, the tension comprising at least axial tension across one or more cutouts in the inner housing member; and
injecting a fillable material through an opening in the wearable ring device such that the fillable material fills the one or more cutouts and contacts the deformable band.
