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.

| Caliber | Relationship | To | Status | Detail | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Omega 8508 | derived from lineage | Omega 8500 | accepted | interchange note: the source lists the 8508 as one of the movements based on the 8500 series, differentiated by the antimagnetic material set rather than by architecture · component delta: balance_spring,pallet_fork,escape_wheel_treatment | |
| Omega 8900 | derived from lineage | Omega 8500 | accepted | interchange note: the source lists the 8900/1 among the movements based on the 8500 series, distinguished by METAS Master Chronometer certification · component delta: balance_spring,regulation_method,certification | |
| Omega 8500 | successor of related | design:omega-2500 | accepted | succeeds the 2500 in the lineup; the source explicitly denies derivation | |
| Omega 8500 | no derivation between related | design:eta-2892-a2 | accepted | — |
