====== Omega 8900 ======
**Calibre 8900** is the first of a family of [[automatic]] [[Co-Axial]] watch movements from [[Omega]]. It will replace [[Omega 8500|Cal. 8500]].

===== History =====
In [[2007]], Omega introduced the first [[in-house]] [[Co-Axial]] movement family, [[Omega 8500|Cal. 8500]]. This movement was redesigned and the new **Cal. 8900** launched at [[BaselWorld]] in [[2015]]. That movement was shortly joined by a family of new movements, with Omega making it known that this would replace the Cal. 8500 family. The luxury-finished **Cal. 8901** was the first of Omega's movements to meet the [[METAS]] certification.

Cal. 8900 features two barrels in series, providing a power reserve of 60 hours. It uses a free-spring balance and silicon balance spring, making it resistant to magnetic fields up to 15,000 Gauss. Like its predecessor, it operates at 25,200 A/h rather than the [[high-beat|more-common 28,800 A/h]].
