Why the oil sits inside the case
The visible effect is the real reason behind the construction: As soon as light is no longer refracted between air and glass, the reflections and apparent depth of the crystal disappear. The dial visually moves forward, the hands and indices appear more three-dimensional and you can read the watch without glare even in bright sunlight or at a shallow angle. The fact that the liquid equalises the pressure inside and thus makes the case less sensitive to depth is the second, technical advantage of this solution.
