Happy Modding!
Here's my list of tools. I and not any sort of expert and by no means claim it's the best, but I've been able to do mods successfully with it!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PVPJ44Y?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I think that's most of it...
If I had to do it over again I think I would buy this kit
https://www.esslinger.com/watch-repair-deluxe-watch-tool-set/
It has basically all the useful stuff short of a cheap amazon crystal press!
The bezel I had to get from an ebay seller, as that style was completely sold out by all the seiko mod part websites that carry it. Got the bezel right here https://www.ebay.com/itm/323548307259.
The green bezel insert is from DLWwatches
Also, not in the picture, but now on the watch is this bracelet from StrapCode which I HIGHLY recommend. It makes the watch feel very premium. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CHZ9ADE/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_uV7PDbVYA674H
I picked up this cheap one off amazon, seemed to worked well enough.

Here's the one I got. Totally know what you mean, which is why I tried looking for a cheaper option first. I'm not likely to use it, so if you'd be interested to pay for the shipping I wouldn't mind sending it your way. Gotta warn you though, I live in Hawaii so it might be relatively expensive...
get yourself some rodico https://www.amazon.com/Bergeon-Professional-Cleaning-Rodico/dp/B008YMGYBU/
WD40 is for displacing water and breaking loose a rusty connection. It is not a replacement for a proper set of tools. Your case back is likely NOT rusted on. Therefore, do the following- invest the small amount of money it takes to get a Paylak TS-CH300 Metal Watch Repair Tool and a KMCT17001 Excellent Watch Repair Tool AL-Handle 3 Point Waterproof Screw Case Opener KMDECYY TM . When you have those put the watch firmly into the holder, adjust the wrench to the proper size, hold down firmly and turn the wrench to the left until it becomes loose. That simple!
