Lol, was thinking more along the lines of an actual date. Was curious to see the correlation between their release and the value of BTC.

Jeff got the first one, so it looks like the 30th of Jan 2013

IIRC ASICMiner was the first to make it out the door.  Avalon was the first to an end-user.

Yeah good point. Depends whether you mean "started operating", or "sold to end-user". ASICMINER started using them first I believe, but didn't sell to end users for ages.
