Rolex compatibity

Hello everybody,

I'd like to construct an ideal (for me) watch.
I've collected, bought and sold a few bits and bobs but (if the truth be
told) I don't really know what I'm doing.
The watch I want/ covet doesn't really exist and so I'm wondering how I can
construct it.
I have done searches on Google: I'm not lazily posting. However.....
........will someone here point me to a site or advise re.

Measurements for dials vs cases
Compatible/ fitting movements for Oyster cases.

I'm not worried about bands or hands, I get that much :-).
I'm thinking of making my own dial (pink, dark pink, silver California) I
don't think one exists and I want one.
Advice re mm case, movements which fit and dial size will be appreciated.
Even if I end up making my own dial I need advice about Oyster cases and
movements.

Regards
Sammy
