P08 krieghoff 1923

At a local gunshop I've seen a Krieghoff Luger dated 1923. I'm trying to become more of an expert on P08 (but I think I've got still a long way to go) What confuses me most is the date, 1923, how is possible 1923 when if I'm not wrong Krieghoff started manufacturing Luger pistols only after Simson production was stopped in 1933 wa. I've always believed that in 1923 there were only BKIW (ex DWM since 1922) and Simson (ex Erfurt since 1920 although

production started only in 1925 I think) I'm a bit confused with these dates, is there some P08 guru to help me a bit please?
