Replace Polar scope reticle?

[cuivenion]

Hi< I've got a fairly basic reticle in my polar scope, just the the crosshairs and a circle with a smaller circler placing polaris. I'm wondering if it would be possible to replace it with something like this:

This is from the free software Polar Finder. If I had this reticle in my polar scope I imagine I would be able to leave the mount in the home position and then place Polaris in the correct area on the reticle. Any advice very welcome.

No one any ideas on this? I've only ever used one kind of polar scope, so I'm not sure if such a reticle is available.

Only type I have seen is this one

The new Skywatcher reticle is very easy to use, although it has three ticks (20 minutes) for each tick on polar finder's display.

I hope this isn't a stupid question but what problem are you finding with your current polarscope?

Not so much of a problem, I just think I'll be more accurate if the reticle corresponds to the the software I'm using. That way I won't have to rely on the eq5 clocks or estimating where the Polaris circle goes.

The article in my polar scope is damaged and unuseable. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? (Preferably in the UK)

Depends what mount it fits to. Not sure how easy it would be to replace the reticle, you might be better off getting a new polar scope. Do a Google search for your mount and whatever company stocks it will probably stock a replacement polar scope.
