Inspired by by XKCD #88, Instructables user Kiteman set out to make his own Möbius strip wristband, by the obvious method: Cutting a silicone wrist band, flipping one end over, and gluing it back together. He tried out various adhesives before settling on Gorilla Glue. I would also want to experiment with a silicone-based adhesive like Devcon 12045. Also, FWIW, it’s not expensive to have custom debossed silicone wristbands made, even in single-digit quantities.

Cut that down the middle, along its length will give you two interlocking bands. You can try it with a bit of paper if you are not sure!
Actually, you do have to do that… but twice. Which will mean a very thin, very large wristband interlocked with another.
Actually, you get two interlocking mobius strips.
Ran out of ideas?
Owww. That would be uncomfortable.
