Fun With Fonts: Typography’s New Maximalism
CVDK Venus Annual Calendar
Christiaan van der Klaauw presents the Venus Annual Calendar, an astronomical timepiece exploring the intricate celestial dance between Venus, Earth, and the Moon. Powered by the CKM-01 movement and an innovative astronomical module, its four-disc dial illustrates the planets’ real-time positions and orbital paths around the Sun.
The white dial features a distinctive annual calendar with a month-scaled date track, requiring only one correction every four years. Detailed planetary information and an innovative lunar display bring astronomical precision to everyday timekeeping.
The hand-finished movement showcases star-shaped bridges, rhodium plating, and a skeletonised rose gold-plated rotor, combining celestial fascination with refined Dutch watchmaking craftsmanship.
