Hello gentleman's!

I have this stunning (for me) Venus 150 Fortis chronograph with patina dial, nice flexible lugs, olive pushers and stainless steel (staybrite) case. I can't find anything info about this piece. Only the only link to the 1990 auction results. Without any detailed description, unfortunately. If you have a similar chronograph. Or photos / ads / posters. Any information - share it, please. Photo from VENTE ANTIQUORUM N°56 results:

Best regards,

Unfortunately, I don't have macro lens for my Fuji. But! I will try to make new photos from the phone.
