no good way to clean.
only option is get a quality strap
get a Di-Modell strap with “AERO Lining” which is guaranteed sweat resistant and is 100m water resistant

Swatch group also have yr end sale going on. they carry many brands, so how much nicer? U want richemont and Frank Muller group to do that?
Richemont don't have that, but Frank Muller group often have huge sales going around thru AD with discounts as steep as 70%.
Rolex forget it!
someone did report going on those and getting longines for 50% off.

or it maybe from surplus! Swatch may have over estimated and need to get rid of them. or it maybe discontinuing the model. another source maybe due to returns! I know Asia don't have returns but some countries do.

there are lots of reason how they are getting the stock. the above may not be the only reason
*
hence, that is what i meant when i said `slow and unpopular models'. if its popular, there shouldnt be problem of over estimation or need to get rid of them or even returns.

not saying watches with huge percentage of discounts are bad..i myself am always on look out for sales...but its good not to buy just because its discounted heavily and yet the heart has fallen in love with a particular model with lesser discount..

lower-mid range formula 1 watches arent really high tech but more of a concept/style. to watch lover, its usually about movement.

not a tech junkie when it comes to watches but i heard the T Touch from Tissot and all those huge Casio Trekkers are popular with those who like some technology in their watches

Very easy, not much different from local online purchase.
1. Saw what you like.
2. Email the seller.
3. If price and terms ok, then pay either by paypal, credit card, bank wire etc
4. Voila!

Further information, you can read their FAQ and Shipping and Handling.
