Venus Cal. 150 is part of the Venus 150 family of movements. It is a hand-winding column wheel chronograph movement. It is the base movement in the family. Cal. 151 is similar but without the beveled edge of Cal. 150. The dial features a 3-9 subdial arrangement.

Cal. 150 was introduced around 1938, updated in 1949, and retired around 1960. The Soviet Strela movement is a copy of the Venus Cal. 150.
