Cigarette smoke

Or you could just, yourself, start smoking cigarettes? Then you'd no longer notice the smell of the watchstrap? That or a cigarette broken in half up each nostril or a good dollop on Vick's just above the top lip below the nostrils? It'd have the added bonus of people thinking you were a forensic pathologist, on a case, wearing an expensive watch!

And, now from me, some sensible advice. If it is a diver's watch I'd simply leave it in water in which you've prepared by filling a  bucket with good hay (from a pet shop) and then topped with boiling water. Let the water cool and then leave the watch in in in the hay. It might work. It certainly used to work (bucket, water, hay) to overnight take the smell of new gloss paint from a room. Whether it actually removed the smell or (like Airwick) merely over masked it with a more pleasant smell) I don't know.
