Auction and dealer records date ref. 1022 case 692,564 (Pandolfini) and 692,570 (Bonhams) to circa 1961, case 768,587 (Adams) to 1961, case 856,369 (HODINKEE) to 1963, and case 1,060,089 (Tajan) to circa 1964. The first four numbers fall in Pergola bands labeled 1961, 1961, 1961, and 1962; the last falls in the 1964 band. The chart's 1962 label for case 856,369 differs from HODINKEE's 1963 listing date. These catalogue dates and unofficial chart bands are checks on individual examples, not the 1022's production limits.
