So from what I'm reading the only difference between the two is the size of the case? Does this mean that the movement is similar and the bracelet can be interchangable?

I believe that they are both 20mm bracelets so I will say that the bracelets could be interchangeable......but I have not confirmed that...

I have an older Perpetual Date 1500 (mid 1960s). The bracelet is 19mm.
I do not know if that has changed for the newer/current models.

There isn't a huge amount of difference: the Date is 2mm smaller, only comes on the Oyster bracelet, has slightly fewer (but some different) dials, and has the added choice of the engine turned bezel.
