I'm very much new to astronomy so not much experience but replying because I started out with the same telescope - and still have it. I decided to upgrade the eyepieces that came with it and get a bit more magnification at the same time - mainly to look at Saturn and Jupiter.
I bought a Orion Stratus 8mm eyepiece online from Bintel in Sydney. It made a very big difference to my viewing because it was very comfortable for a beginner like me to use (lots of eye relief), it gave me a much bigger field of view than the eyepieces that came with my Skywatcher and of course more magnification. My only slight regret was that I didn't get the 5mm.
The Orion Stratus costs just under $200 which may seem a lot of money given the cost of the telescope but to me it was well worth it.
Hope this helps a bit in making your decision.
