Put the dial onto the movement.
Put the hands on the movement.
Lower the case onto the movement.
Install the movement holder.
Use the movement screws and clamps to secure the movement into the case.
Install the stem/crown
Install the case back.
Install the bracelet/strap

Enjoy!

You will also need the stem inside the watch when you do the hands to ensure the date changes at the right time. But otherwise all is good here!

what are these 2 brackets holding?
Those are to hold the dial to the movement.

Twist them out to make room for the dial feet, then rotate them in to hold the dial in place.
