Magic Eraser works. Take the strap off the watch, and lay each part flat on the counter top. (It will work very slowly if you hold the strap over your hand or fingers). Dampen the Magic Eraser and rub hard over and over, rinsing from time to time and drying it so see if the colour has gone. It will take a fair long time depending how hard you rub. You can't damage the strap with this method. It will not yellow later on like cleaner might make it do. The stain will gradually go. It will not happen immediately. Mine was a white strap with a blue (off new fabric) stain. It did finally go. Persist!
