Looking for a generic (doesn't require an app) bluetooth bracelet. On Amazon every model seems to have a terrible score for good reasons...except the unreviewed Etree BW10 which has good looks and features. Before I take a chance with this, does anyone have any suggestions?
What is a bluetooth bracelet?

Ditto.
Like a watch that connects to your phone, and vibrates for and displays the caller ID of incoming calls, plus other features that vary by model (display text message content, anti-loss warning etc)
So I guess you have no suggestions then 
What is an anti-loss warning?

Basically just vibrates and displays a message if the phone goes out of range of the bracelet.
I looked at one-two but never found good reviews on any.
I've got one of the original Kickstarter Pebbles (doesn't quite fit your description as it requires an app, and doesn't have the anti-loss warning capability yet).
I rather like it, but it does have its issues both in the hardware itself and the support. There is a problem with the screen getting garbled that has yet to be fixed or even determined exactly what causes it, and there are sometimes issues with it reconnecting after being disconnected. On the support side they've been VERY slow to respond to problem like the aforementioned screen problem, and the SDKs for the majority of the capabilities that were advertised have still not been released that I am aware of. To really use the capabilities (at least on the iPhone) you need a jailbroken phone and a paid app that someone just released that does the first real two-way stuff with the Pebble and the phone.
I can't really complain too much though given I got two through the Kickstarter and sold the second for enough to cover the cost of both of them, so the one I have was essentially free...
Do you talk through your bracelet? Gotta be careful with that one, cause people will think your with the Secret Service, or one of those crazies you see every now and again.

Some of them actually let you do that...it's a feature I wouldn't use.

1970's Saturday AM kids shows. I think it was followed by Shizam! or one of the claymation japanese shows like "The Indestuctable Man".
It was awful. It was Ultraman bad.
What has become of GRM Forums? One post with pictures of shoes and now one talking about bracelets. I need to go to pirate4x4 or the hamb or something.

Any advice on where one might find decently priced, appropriately sized banana hammocks?
When was Ultraman Bad? Every episode I remember was awesome!!!
