So I was curious when people said that the border did not exist on the Voyage: it's clearly more than just a necessary seam between metal and glass. So I waved my trusty magnetometer over it, and whaddaya know, it's magnetic; the border is there to hold the case lid on. Short of making the edge of the glass magnetic (which would probably have jacked up the price considerably), there needed to be metal or other magnetic material on the front of the Oasis: their choice of a metal rim was unobtrusive enough that I at least didn't even realise what it was that was holding the lid on, it just seemed to stay on by magic. (Burying the magnetic rim under the glass front would probably have reduced the magnetism too much).
