Welcome to the addiction. A good budget 5513 can be had from Perfect Clones, aka Josh, he is a trusted dealer here. The basic watch needs work. Starting with the crown guards then crown and tube, crystal, dial, hands, insert etc. After that the sky's the limit. Better cases can be obtained from Yuki or Phong at a price. All depends on your budget. Lots of info on the forum, do your research and have fun. Good luck!

Singer is a dial manufacturer that produced dials for Rolex.

It's a Singer dial off eBay. I used GS Hypo Cement and a lot of trial and error. What I mean by aligning the numerals in the date window is; you need to check the opposite numeral on the overlay is also aligned to the window. You can do this by carefully rotating the dial around the date wheel. Good luck!

Basically you need to remove the original ETA date wheel, if there's an overlay on there already remove it.. Lightly sand the ETA date wheel surface, don't sand the original numerals completely away though. They will act as a guide when applying the new overlay. Re-fit the ETA date wheel to movement. Very lightly glue the overlay on top of the original aligning it to opposite numerals as best you can. This the fun part, lightly place dial on top. Align opposite numerals to the date window of the dial, adjusting overlay position slightly as required before the glue drys. Once satisfied lightly press the overlay down one last time and you are done. Overlay aligned to original ETA date wheel Date wheel aligned to dial window

Haven't seen them on the forums for a while, you can get them on the bay though: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ETA-movement-part-date-disc-silver-2824-2836-2893-rolex-oyster-date-/121662084517?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c53a015a5
