Collection: Venus

Venus watch movements, originating from the Swiss ébauche manufacturer Venus SA, are renowned for their historical significance in mid-20th century watchmaking. Established in the early 1900s, Venus produced high-quality mechanical movements, particularly chronograph calibers like the Venus 175 and 188, which were widely used by prestigious brands such as Breitling and Omega. Known for their reliability and precision, these movements featured intricate designs, including column-wheel mechanisms for smooth chronograph operation. Though Venus SA was absorbed by ETA in the 1960s, its movements remain highly sought after by collectors and watch enthusiasts for their craftsmanship and enduring legacy in horology.
