the foul odor is bacteria build up.. Try soaking it in peroxide or vinegar.. Vinegar kills bacteria that like alkaline environments and H2O2 kills anaerobic bacteria.. If it still stinks, try bleach.. Soap and water isn't enough to kill deep seeded bacteria..Health Question & Answer
the sweat from your arm gets on the watch band.. Try a different band made from a different type of material.. Wash and dry under watch more frequently.. Make sure you don't run under water or get it wet on purpose..Health Question & Answer
