a second housing comprising:
a sealing ring attached to the second end of the first sleeve and the second portion of the second sleeve; and
a cover coupled to the second sleeve and substantially covering the second end opening and the second portion opening;
wherein a width of the second sleeve is equal to a depth of the second clamping slot, the second sleeve is latched in the second clamping slot.
2. The housing of claim 1 , wherein the cover forms a connection portion surrounded and wrapped by the sealing ring.
3. The housing of claim 1 , wherein the first sleeve and the sealing ring are made of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers.
4. The housing of claim 1 , wherein the second sleeve is made of metal.
5. The housing of claim 1 , wherein the second sleeve forms a plurality of bearing members, each bearing member defines a fixed pillar having a fixed hole, the second housing defines a plurality of mounting holes aligned with the fixed holes.
6. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a housing comprising:
a first housing comprising:
a first sleeve defining a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, the first end having a first end opening, the second end having a second end opening, the first end defining a first clamping slot, the second end defining a second clamping slot;
a second sleeve substantially encircling the first sleeve, the second sleeve having a first portion and a second portion opposite to the first portion, the first portion having a first portion opening corresponding to the first end opening, the second portion having a second portion opening corresponding to the second end opening;
a second housing comprising:
a sealing ring attached to the second end of the first sleeve and the second portion of the second sleeve; and
a cover coupled to the second sleeve and substantially covering the second end opening and the second portion opening
