I've seen 5167A's dating back to 2021-2022 with the 330SC movement and newer clasp, but have also seen quite a few dated as recently as 2023 that have the 324SC and older clasp. Curious what the reason for this could be and why they didn't just use up the 324's as early as possible. Is it as simple as Patek working through old stock / a large inventory of parts that needed time to be assembled into complete movements?

Maybe these were sitting in ADs safes for years and brought out and dated when sold at a later time
