I would strongly advise that you get a watchmaker to do this for you. The crystal is an armée type and requires the right press and die. Also, the bezel can be damaged if you remove it the wrong way. These have thin wires that either create tension to prevent free-turning, or hold the bezel in place. The wire is easily distorted and not easily fixed.
