Venus 210 Description
The Venus 210 is a Swiss-made manual-wind chronograph movement produced by Venus SA. It was known for its use of a cam-switching mechanism instead of a more traditional column wheel, which made it a more cost-effective option for watch manufacturers. This caliber typically features a bi-compax layout with two sub-dials. Following the acquisition of Venus by Valjoux in 1966, the designs of movements like the related Venus 188 went on to influence the Valjoux 7730 series.
