A lot of industrial gauges will use glycerin (I think... or some other oil) in the gauges for dampening reasons.

The higher end gauges (check WIKA and Ashcroft, for example) have variations of each model that are dry or liquid-filled. For us, the only reason to go liquid-filled is if we find them at a good price. Other than that, it's an aesthetics thing.
