Adding a cyclops to Tudor 1926

I bought my wife a Tudor 1926 for Christmas and she loves the watch, however the date window is very small and she sometimes finds it hard to read.

Does anyone know if RSC will add a magnifier or are is it best to look into a local watch service?

I would be interested to know if anyone has done anything similar (in the UK ideally) and if there are any issues.

Thanks

RSC won't do it, but if the crystal is completely flat you can DIY. Here's an old thread of mine on how to do it: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=375949

Thanks really useful. I'm not sure if I am confident enough to do it myself but I may practice on an older watch. Where did you get the Cyclops and glue etc?
