I have one thread that is a #30 Tex and it's pretty thick in comparison
According to Superior's tex measurement reference chart, So Fine #50 is tex 25, so the Wawak thread is just a smidge thinner. I'm guessing the difference will be hard to see.

Superior has some good articles about thread weight and measurement :
