While it is not viewed professionally and it is suggested that the official not wear a watch or large rings, it is not because players can't wear them. It's simply because that is the expected uniform for the officials.
As far as rubber bands go, I don't know that it has ever been mentioned. I think I've seen some people with them.
Again, just because it is frowned upon and usually not done does not mean that the reason is the rules governing players.
