YW from me, glad that is all you wanted to get done. Thought it was more
complex a question. I agree that the image pattern would help distinguish
between the imprints and plastic, just that it might not seem neccessary for
this depending on the lighting angles and scale.

Looking at the button again I think you need the torus to drop lower on the
inside edge. Although it would then begin curving away from the central
depression requiring another torus to reverse the curve direction back
inward. In other words a second, smaller, clipped torus at the conjunction
of the first and the sphere.
