A local jewler here at the seybold building in downtown Miami did it for me. He's always done my work and he does it in front of me so I can see how carefully he does it. And if it meets my standards which is great. He charged me $50 to install and the date wheel you have to find at the "for sale" section so the cost may vary

Thanks for all the generous comments. I'm not sure if I'm really OCD but for some reason I feel that since the case back was opened to do this, I feel like since it wasn't pressure tested I'm scared to go diving/swimming with the watch. He tightened the caseback good but I'm just not sure

As for pressure testing, it's a quick job and for the sake of a (relative) few bucks then I'd go to an AD that provides the service and get it done.
