    You could just line it up and parent it to the right forearm or hand (without fitting it to the figure), which would probably work fairly well and be simpler than other options.

    As I check  the product page, the wristband seems rigged (not static prop). then it may need to re-rig to work as same as original. If you  use anotehr 3d aprication, it  make easy x mirroer and return to ds as obj, then rig it by transfer utility,,   but if I only use daz studio,

    1.  load original, with zero pose genesis3male,  then select the wristband , go to  top menu > edit>figure>rigging>convert figure to prop.  select the prop, then , in parameter tab,  apply X scale as negative 100%,  usually it can X mirroer the current prop.

    2 export and re-import it as obj.with default ds option,    now parameter should be reset.   (zero scale) .

    3 check surface group, name.  if it has been changed , set it as same as original one with geometry editor..  (to use mat preset correctly)

    4. If you use it without rig,   save it as new  porp then use it by parent to the arm. as same as ohter accessory props.   though you may need to make morph, when Actor change shape,   you can still use same mat preset of original .

    (it  will  lost all meta-data, then you need to find orignal mat presets from content library)

    5 if you hope to rig it (then fit to Actor) , after step 3,  use transfer utility.  soruce genesis3male , target the new imported obj,  , and use projection template as  glove. bracelet  or wristband are  easy to color weight, then  transfer utiility work well,,  you may need not many adjusting weight map etc. then save it as new figure.

    I may lost some step, or may need more tweak, but basically it work. (or if htere is more easy way, to flip x for rigged figure, but I do not know)

    I  add  pics if you folow those step  , I use this product list-band, to make mirroer for left hand,, it is for  genesis3female, but I think it should work about the product and genesis3male, now I can save it as new figure.

    .  (I have a few  product,, for genesis3male  then not have accessory for man,,,  ^^;)
