I'm talking about the one you enable via Poser Main Menu > Display > Guides > Focus Distance Guide, the one in the screenshot below.

The problem is that most of the time I want to check the distance to an object which is neither at the viewport centre nor on the diagonals, so I need a guide that includes more circles and/or radial lines.

I assume that the Focus Distance Guide is either a geometry mesh or a texture image on a flat plane, but can't find either.

Any hints ?

The 3Dcheapskate* occasionally posts sensible stuff. Usually by accident.
And it usually uses Poser 11, with units set to inches. Except when it's using Poser 6 or PP2014, or when its units are set to PNU.

*also available in ShareCG, DAZ, and HiveWire3D flavours (the DeviantArt and CGBytes flavour have been discontinued).
