How on Earth do I get rid of the smell?  I wash the band after each sweaty workout with Cetaphil BUT it still stinks, to the point where there is a slight smell on the skin under the watch when I take it off.

 

Any other suggestions?

Usually this smell is from dead bacteria or bacteria poop. Do you also clean your arm? 

Not wearing the unit to right?

I do follow the above.  I don't wear the watch at night.
