Circular Gauge with segmented bar pointer / or segmented rectangle in a range?

I am using WPF Gauge , I want to implement a circular gauge with no needle or custom pointer. Instead I would like to display the "pointer value" as  segmented rectangle bar in a linear gauge .Basically I would like to use the kind of "progress bar representation" but in a circular gauge.

I was thinking on do this dynamically with short ranges ( creating/deleting a new range each time  value its been increased or decreased). I was wondering if there is a more  simple way because this feauture looks quite useful to me and maybe I am not aware about another easy way to get this effect.

Example of what I want:
