Abstract
Wrist wearable straps and a case are disclosed, each having an interior cavity for engagedly storing a special tool. One wrist device strap is made of a selected material and defines a pocket for holding the special tool. A second wrist device strap includes at least one special link defining an interior cavity for holding the special tool. These special links also include a removable portion to which is attached a special tool. The removable portion blends with the remainder of the link to give the appearance of a regular link when in place. The wrist device case similarly defines a cavity and includes a removable portion to which is attached a special tool. This removable portion enhances the appearance of the case when in place with the special tool held snugly within the cavity.
