168000 (1987) Sub in Need of Tender Loving Care !
Hello, I'm new to the watch forum. I didn't even know there was a watch forum, but I stumbled across it, and now, I need some help !I've got a Stainless, Submariner Date (168000), that is in dire need of some tender loving care.

I just want my Sub, brought back to life, and

(Models Currently in Production)1. There are two possible movements: 2500 or 8500, but does the movement determine the bezel material? It seems like 2500 is an aluminum bezel, but 8500 is a ceramic bezel (but not necessarily liquid metal).2. There are two possible sizes: 42mm and 45.5mm, but are both sizes available in both aluminum and ceramic bezel models?3. There are a couple dial options: White 6,9,12 or Orange 6,9,12, but are they both available with all bezel and size options?4. I understand the l
