There hasn't been an official announcement. Tho it's pretty safe bet October 26th. Win8, Win8 R/T, and WP8 are scheduled to release Oct 26th and Microsoft and Nokia worked vey closely on the Lumia 920/820. As the flagship phone to showcase WP8 you can assume that it will release along side the OS.
There is a Wired article about the head of Nokia's Design studio that talks about the design on the phone and also just how closely Microsoft and Nokia worked on the phone. All the way down to Microsoft matched the OS colors exactly to colors of the hardware and made sure everything worked. Very interesting article in general if your interested:
