Cyclope date magnifier: which size ?

Hi all,
I know several people hate the cyclope date magnifier, but personally I like it and find it really helpful in order to improve the date reading.

So my question is: which is the exact dimensins of the cyclope used for example on the Rolex GMTIIC or in the Submariner ?

Is it easy (and if yes where ?) to find a hesalite cyclope date magnifier ?

TIA and I remain waiting for your help.

Ciao

Engi

Are you looking to have it installed on a different watch, other than a Rolex? If not, all you will need to do is buy a new crystal. To my knowledge, they are not for individual sale....at least I have never seen one.

Speak with a watchmaker and see what options they have for you.

I like the Cyclops on Rolex as i think it is that part, that makes the watch instantly recognisable as a Rolex.
