I like to wear my watch with a leather band. But because I wear it all the time it gets wet with water, sweat and beer. After a few weeks the smell is horrible.
So last week I had a little annoying pain in my wrist, probably from sleeping in a wrong position. I sprayed my wrist with a mild anelgesic
spray that had a penetrating minty smell. My wrist got better and my watch band still smells sort of fresh but is in need of another spray. Hence the idea.
A perfume in a variety of smells specifically designed to get rid of watch band odour. To be sold at the jewelry store.

Disposable watch bands in different scents - change them every few days. |

The 20th and 21sth centuries will be remembered as the
decades in which we invented new odours even quicker than
we invented the means to treat them. Body odour, breath
odour, foot odour, stale-carpet odour, bathroom odour,
paint odour,watch-strap odour, lawnmower odour,
microwave odour, book odour.... |

I drop my watch in Milton solution, but this probably won't do a leather strap a lot of good (mine's stainless steel). |

You heard it here, folks - [zen_tom] can't handle beer. |

Well then I'll take responsibility for his bar tab this week. |

Yep, tried the essential oil thing. Wasn't strong enough. |
|
| |
Did you soak the entire strap overnight every night in pure undiluted essential oil? |
|
| |
first off, thanksalot for giving me something else to worry about. |
|
| |
but if you want to fumigate the strap, just find some of that pink liquid commercial soap, rub it in and soak overnight. |

Exploding wristband - for the terrorist with an inferiority complex. |

I have a great idea: you should gradually wean yourself off of sniffing your watch strap. It might be difficult, the withdrawal symptoms might be severe, but you will feel like a new person once you succeed. And you'll save a fortune in saddle soap, pink detergent and essential oils! |

Ah but you should give it a try, [UB]. One little sniff can't do any harm, now.... |

The first stage to recovery is to admit you have a problem. |
