Would like to join the PC crowd one day. Perhaps IWC could offer a 42mm version for us "wrist size" challenged admirers.

First of all a big congrats Tonny - you chose the exact timepiece that drew me to IWC in the first place. Your new watch's brother says hi from Norway (older picture): PS! I really love that sparkling sky of the 5022 too, especially after hearing how difficult it was for IWC to manufacure that stone - so much in fact that they gave it up for the 5023!
Andy - you are in luck my friend, if you can find a 5022 they are indeed 42,3mm (as opposed to the 5023 at 44,1mm) - so now you have no excuse - LoL :-)
Skule my UCSB friend....42.3 you say? WOW...tell me more. What variations did this come in? How long ago was the 5022 retired? Any and all details please !
Members out there who have the 5022, I invite you to post your pic's. I think I might have found something that I thought was not in the cards for me.
This virus shows no mercy. Wife is urging me to call the "Centers for Disease Control" (CDC) for help !

Oh my God, a PPC in my size. Pinch me !
Andy - Don't contact the CDC. The inevitable outcome is that you would infect them with the virus rather than cure yourself.
As for the 5022, I see Platinum with white dial, Yellow Gold with white dial and White Gold with gray dial (my favorite). There may be others - those are what I saw for sale on a well-known watch sales site. By the way, congratulations on your soon-to-be incoming. :)
