Cheers for all the help! altesporsche - I am considering it haha

Hi all, I am new to this forum and until very recently had no idea that there exists a thriving community of replica watch builders! I've done a great deal of reading through past topics on this forum over the last couple of days and find it all fascinating. Whilst my grail watch is a Rolex MilSub ref.5517, I am very aware that there is a slim-to-none chance of me ever owning a gen MilSub and have decided that I'd like to build my own, like many others here. Below, is a list of parts and their manufacturers that some users have provided me with. Any nudges in the right direction, suggestions, knowledge that any of you can provide me with will be greatly appreciated. It is a project that I would like to start soon and ideally finish by the end of the year. Overall, I'd say I have a budget of around £2,500. Case Set - Ruby's Dial - Ruby's Hands - Yuki Crown - I want to use a genuine Rolex crown. Is it a 702 crown that I need? Movement - I would like to use a genuine Rolex movement. Is 1520 the movement I'd need? Bezel - Who does the most accurate at the moment? I'd also like the dial to look like aged Tritium, who am I best off going to for this? Again, I am very new to all of this so forgive me if I've said anything stupid. I really appreciate people taking the time to read this and help me. Cheers all!
