Serial Number Question: First Heuer-Leonidas Marked Mvmnt?

I am trying to track down an item of information, as follows: We see the first Carreras with serial numbers 53xxx, 54xxx, 55xxx, 56xxx, 57xxx and 58xxx . . . and at 59xxx we swith back to Autavias. Within this range of early Carreras, 53xxx through 58xxx, we know that the earlier ones (produced in 1963, for example) had the movements marked "Ed. Heuer & Co.".

Can anyone show us a movement marked Heuer-Leonidas in this range (53xxx to 58xxx)? It will be interesting to see when the Heuer-Leonidas mark first went onto the movements.
