A better oil pressure gauge? (not digital)

Looking for a better oil pressure gauge, that is still 0-60 PSI. Or maybe whatever the stock numbers were. One that is not digital. I made the mistake of buying an autometer one that is 0-100 PSI. As you can guess, it looks like there is never any oil pressure. Because while the gauge is functioning and reading correctly, its just too broad of a spectrum for the needle to ever really move. It does move almost a quarter of the way up, when the engine is cold. But then it quickly settles down to what looks like just above zero.

So I wanted to ask if anyone knows of a good gauge with a needle, that will fit in the stock location. That is like 0-50 or 0-60 PSI. Autometer does have a 0-80 PSI one, but I'm not sure it would be much of an improvement.
