What does “ring gauge” indicate?
Ring gauge is used to indicate the diameter of a cigar. It’s actually not that complicated, as the whole measuring scale is based on 64th of an inch. Therefore, a cigar with a ring gauge of “50” is actually 50/64th of an inch in diameter, and a cigar with a ring gauge of “64” is 64/64th of an inch, or 1 inch, in diameter.
