and the ladies version and the one off titanium version with the black dial.

Or you could get the 5522 and the 5524R and G. Personally though I cant get on board with the R.

They are all different colors of the same watch not a different model. Anyway I wouldn't own more than one 5524 and it would be the white gold one....

Your imagination is the limit here. The only thing that would make the 5522 better is being busted down completely!

5522, 5524G, 5524R ;/

Too bad I have a 6.75 wrist and the 5524 series with the pushers makes it wear too big for my taste. I do like the 5522 though : )

I would add "Special Edition" in red in the space above 6.00. Needs embossing of some sort

That would surely be the most overpriced watch in history.
