I recommend a service company called The Art of the Watch. I am not affiliated with them - I am a happy customer. They specialize in “preservations” where they make the watch mechanically sound without polishing or any of the other invasive procedures all the smart people here have recommended you do NOT do. This is correct. You want it mechanically sound but physically as-is.
