I'm very active outdoors and have 6 Casios, one like the model here. I'd shit kittens if one actually leaked.

Not that it's much closer to those insane watch depth limits, but saturation driving had a record of 700 meters or so.

I wish the article didn't skip the part about how they filled it up with mineral oil that sounds cool.

They do mention there's lots of guides. I couldn't find a wikihow, but here's a forum link https://www.thewatchsite.com/threads/superlative-oil-filled-f-91wthe-making-of-the-superlative-oil-filled-casio-f-91.8273/

The 91fw is still made to this day though. I have 3 of the things myself. My favourite watch to wear
