The rings were several hundred years old when the Nazgul first appeared. Who knows how long that had been in position of the rings? And who knows if they were invisible all the time then? I have no idea how long a Man would need to live before starting to turn into a wraith naturally, but I don't think the Numenoearns had lived that long yet. The best example that I know of is from Laws and Customs of the Eldar, which I gave above. Elves and Men have essentially the same bodies, so I think it can be applied well enough.
