I wore it out for the first time. I think it has a stain on the leather or the leather's finish might have been damaged. Therefore, I think some alcohol might have spilled on the leather strap, or I accidentally sprayed my cologne on it. These two things are some causes that I think could have removed some of the leather's finish. I already tried rubbing it with water, but that did not work at all. Pictures are on the bottom of the base, and I circled it with yellow.
Anyone know how to fix this. I have some leather conditioner at home. One is clear and the other one is a black leather conditioner (Chelsea Leather Food). You think one of those would work? Any other recommendations.
If it is a stain, I would take the chance of removing it with a little bit of rubbing alcohol. But I think some of the finish just came off.
Here are some links to the pictures I took of the damage.
