Not hard to breed at all. Once you have a female who is at least a year old and over 30g, all you really have to do is put the male in with her and he should do the deed in rather short order. If the cage is big enough you can house them together throughout the breeding season, but it's good to either separate them or cool them both for a couple months to stop egg production, this gives the female time to rest and rebuild her calcium reserves.

I suggest picking up the Rhacodactylus book by Phillippe de Vosjoli. It gives a very detailed account on how to breed, incubate and raise hatchling crested geckos as well as alot of info about other rhac species. Though it's a bit expensive, it's well worth the cost. Even counting just the pictures of all the rhac species is worth the price. Adding in the great info about care, breeding, incubating and raising all the various species makes it even more worth while.
