Tudor small rose prince oyster date question

I have a vintage Tudor prince oyster date with small rose logo (? Year 1950/60). There is no magnifying lens over the date window. Can it be a fake one or the crystal got replaced? I am a newbie and thank for the help.

Hi Chris, welcome aboard!

Regarding your Tudor, we can best analyse it and make a determination with clear high res photos. In the meantime, the link below will give you some general timeframes for earlier Tudor watches. Just scroll down to "Dials"

Thank you for the advise. Photos of the watch for comment (sorry for the quality). Is it strange that it is not a cyclop crystal and I think it can be a replacement crystal. In fact I have difficulty in visualizing the serial number, it may be 28xxxx or 23xxxx.

I think some models like this one came with a domed plexiglass and no cyclops. Not sure!
