rolex 5513 assembly reference

Hi-

I am assembling my first project watch and do not have a lot of experience with watchmaking. I am wondering if there are a few links that cover basic assembly for a rolex submariner. I am looking for some images and instructions on

-removing /assembling the crystal and retaining ring
-removal of the movement from the case
-removal of the dial
-removing / assembling the tube and crown
-assembly of the stem to the movement / crown
-removal / assembly of hands.


Can anyone suggest a website or book that cover older rolex submariners specifically?

I'm purchasing basic tools-

-movement holder
-basic screwdriver plier set
-case-back opener
-hand remover
-crystal press

Is there anything else I should be purchasing? Any info greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Glenn
