The Venus Cal. 150 family is a 13 ligne column wheel chronograph movement series. Introduced in 1938, it featured a 3-9 or 3-6-9 subdial arrangement, with small seconds at 9:00 and 30 minute counter at 3:00. Most versions have a 12-hour chronograph counter at 6:00, and many feature a date pointer at 12:00 or full calendar.

It is closely related to the 14 ligne Cal. 175 family.
