Hi Andrew,
Yes the oil fills the entire case (except the bubble).
The speed of movement is hard to define!
I would say between the two options you propose. It's an oil somewhat fluid, so certainly faster than in a real greasy oil.
I've not noticed a magnification effect. I will check when I see them again.
I guess you can't change batteries yourself. They certainly have do it themselves, at least for the Hyperbare version.
Cheers

The Hyperbare model with bubble inside the dial is most interesting! I'd love to see that watch in person to witness how the bubble moves around the dial. I imagine it skittering quickly as you move your arm. Very cool! Patton uses a unique font for their...

Hi Ling, I guess the batteries do not have a 10P year warranty. It would have been specified. I don't think batteries are generally covered by warranties for watches, like the glass and straps are generally not covered! But I guess if you buy one and your...
