The Venus model continues Christiaan van der Klaauw's tradition of fine astronomical timepieces. The planet Venus when seen from earth is the second most visible planet after our moon. The impressive heliocentric dial displays this relationship. As in nature the planets move in an counter clockwise rotation with Venus and earth rotating around the sun and the moon around earth.
