Answers:
Think of it this way, it's useless as it is. (with that odor). Try washing it, and letting it dry in the sun for a day or so. It couldn't hurt, and it may help.
The same way you get rid of nasty odours from leather shoes. Place it under the sun during a hot and dry day once in a while.
Changing the strap to metallic, plastic or fabric would be a good idea.
YEAH. TAKE IT OFF ONCE AND A WHILE!
If it's possible to separate it, first wash it. then use some deodorant on your wrist before using it. if possible use the deodorant several times a day. it is very useful.
scrub with baking soda and shampoo it absorb all the sweat rinse with water but make sure to dry it before using again.
A leather cleaner or mink oil.
Suggestion, alternate watches!
Take a rag and wet it with vinegar.Then rub the rag down the inside of watch band.Then allow to dry in front of a fan and the smell will go.The vinegar smell leaves when all the way dry.
