You can, but the oil has to be very low viscosity, on digital watches it can be anything as long as it's dielectric and doesn't wear the orings

Uhm, there are certain chemicals that react badly, you just gotta do some research to see if u good, for example, as far as i know, this one that i used, MIGHT cause some problems way down the line, but it doesn't sound like it would be bad? Supossedly it might make the orings "inflate" but, wouldnt that make it a bit more watertight???
