An alert wristband device for use by a swimmer includes a wristband, an alert coupled to the wristband for movement between a stored condition and a deployed condition, and a pull coupled to the alert. The pull has a rigid, enlarged head which defines a prominent grasping point on the wristband for the swimmer to pull when the swimmer is in distress. The alert is a flag, and in the stored condition of the alert, the flag is within an interior storage volume inside the wristband. The flag moves into the deployed condition in response to the swimmer pulling on the pull, so that the flag is pulled out of the wristband and may be waved to signal distress.
