This profile traverses clone_of · derived_from · design_imitation_of · ebauche_of · incorporates_module · licensed_copy_of · module_on · revision_of · tooling_transfer_of · variant_of and keeps disputed edges. Every edge in this view carries at least one reference.
Generations run left to right, ancestors first, and the axis along the top is ordinal rather than linear: each band is one generation, labelled with the range of sourced introduction years it contains. A band reads “—” when no caliber in it has a year anyone published — the gap is the finding, not a rendering failure. Dotted arcs above and below the drawing are related edges — successor, drop-in, no-derivation — which are stored in a different table from lineage and can never form part of an ancestry path.

| A. Lange & Söhne L951.6 | revision of lineage | A. Lange & Söhne L951.1 | accepted | interchange note: Chronograph architecture carried over unchanged (column wheel, lateral clutch, flyback, precisely jumping minute counter, 18,000 vph); the start/stop and reset levers were subtly revised. Part count rises 405 → 451, largely for the added power-reserve indication. · component delta: barrel,mainspring,balance_wheel,balance_spring,regulation_method | |
| design:lange-l156-1 | no derivation between related | A. Lange & Söhne L951.1 | accepted | A different chronograph architecture, not a rotor-equipped Datograph: the L156.1 uses a vertical clutch and a dynamic reset-to-zero driven by a heart cam on the minute wheel, where the L951.x uses a lateral clutch. |
