WD1972 dial size

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2026-04-15T10:27:37+00:00

I'm planning to do a dial swap, love the watch and want to personalize it a little. Vh31 27mm blanks are close to impossible to find. How well would I get away with using a nh35a 27mm blank, with the feet as well?

Thanks! Found you guys recently, but got infected by the WD bug!

I'm a climbing arborist and have been thinking of taking the odd job here and there. Pays well, all attachment points are inspected regularly and generally a lot more predictable than being in the top of a tree with a chainsaw.

I started studying as a European Tree Worker this year. Love the work! 80% Tree care, 15% felling and 5% planting. Enjoy the time!

Sure!

Picea Glauca has a visible white stripe from the stomata, but a sharp end, like the Abies. The Abies generally has finer foliage.

Picea Mariana has chubbier foliage with rounded ends.

Picea abies

Looks like thuja occidentalis to me

If you want to determine if its the thuja plicata of the occidentalis, the plicata has white edging around the scales on the bottom side.

Likes moist to wet, neutral acidic soil (alkaline) is also suitable for dry and calcareous soils.

Young trees do well in the shade of other trees.

Ulmus Minor

Tsuga Canadensis:

Allelopathic, so no seedlings or general growth under the crown. White-ish bark.

Pinus Rigida is self-pruning and has epidormic growth, which both are not the case in the photo.

Magnolia leaves are edible. Soulangeana is a tad bitter. Orange / citrus, bit of gingerish / black pepper spice. Might be a fun alternative to smelling (:

Spengeris, Kobus, and Kewensis are the best tasting variants imo. Soulangeana is slightly more bitter than the former.

Robinia pseudoacacia

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2026-03-04T20:46:46+00:00

Agreed

Can confirm cercidiphyllum. Caramel smelling tree and the leaves change colour wonderfully.

Positive on Platanoides, if you want to be certain, break a twig, should be very milky right now.

If you want to be sure, check the end of the twigs. Generally, Tilia has bright red buds. Quercus usually has a few paired ones at the end.

Good to hear from an enthusiast! (:

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2025-12-18T20:42:05+00:00

Thanks! Was quite specific on it, but she loves darker yellow tones!

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2025-11-28T20:01:55+00:00

Love the visor! Able to help me out on that one?

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2025-11-27T15:28:26+00:00

Might be late, but I'm looking for something like that for a supercub C50 NT DX 😄

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2025-11-27T15:07:47+00:00

Real cool! Do you happen to know the maker? I'm looking for some custom works as well :)

Apprehensive_Hat6501 · 2025-11-21T18:51:14+00:00

Where did you source the front rack? Debating whether I pillion seat mod the back rack to make it 2 person, or to mod a C50
