Very nice and approachable puzzle.
I did not use Phistomefel and instead used prior knowledge from another "Pearl Necklace" sudoku which really helps kickstart the process as it allows you to fill the ring almost immediately and it's all smooth sailing from there

An awesome piece of sudoku if you know the trick! Had I not known a certain infamous individual and their discovery, this would have been a headscratcher. It's nice to see that technique used in such an elegant, yet approachable manner.
Response from Eric: Thanks Jreg. Glad you enjoyed it.
