So I bought my first rep I'm interested in opening it and modding
It. What are the basic tools I need to open my case and work on it? It's a Rolex 5517 rep I bought from Trevor and want to give it a more vintage worn out look. Where is a good place to learn how to work on the movement and how the watch works?

Hi and congrats to you first rep purchase.

As for tools. Watch Bitz sells a very affordable tool kit.
http://watchbitz.com.au/shop/index.php The tool kit is number 1 on the popular product list. Offshore is the forum name on the guy handeling watchbitz.

A good place to learn? well you found this forum :) and this is a great place to start. Look at the tech section on the forum.

Good luck!
