Wow we all have either tossed / binned or have a stash of tired old, faded Pogue inner rotating rings that are so bad we're better off with a decent aftermarket replacement then let something like this tarnish the pleasure of sporting a vintage watch. The seller wants $99 I pray no one ever buys it. The Ramon version at $15 is actually OK (see my review thread)
This is a blatant example of an experienced seller trying it on for size in case a poor chump collector who wants to "keep it all original" is in need.

Very good example of why the AM market is so viable. I'll need a yellow inner ring soon, and have no problems getting a close replica from Ramon or Seikosis.

This is using the dye method I worked out, in about, oh, 2010? Works OK on a part slightly faded but if they are white, they look like crap and it washes off the pad printing because you have to heat the dye solution to make it work.
