When the L688.2 was announced at Baselworld 2009, it was based on the ETA Valgranges caliber A08.231. In 2010, the base caliber number apparently changed to the current A08.L01. This is why you may find older articles and press-releases stating that the L688.2 is an A08.231. This was also around the time ETA started ramping up their plans to stop selling movements outside of the Swatch Group, so most of the A08 calibers are not easy to find technical information about.
