New Kickstarter launching on 21st May 2019.
Not much info on this one I'm afraid.
Depancel Watches are a French watch/fashion (their description) brand with a previously successful Kickstarter campaign behind them. They appear to be very motorsport/car/bike orientated with this reflected in the watch designs.
Their new project, [Re]Naissance ('Rebirth',if my rusty high school French serves me correctly), is a rectangular-tonneau shape which appears to be based on a classic car radiator grille and looks like it will be limited to 1936 pieces.
Movement looks to be a Miyota 9120 automatic with a triple calendar and 24h subdial. Unfortunately couldn't find any more specs, so case dimensions, W/R and crystal material are unknown. Looks to be four different models available from the start of the campaign:
As yet no info on pricing, but their previous Kickstarter watch started at 399 Euros for a model with (I believe) the same movement. Current retail for this model is 599 Euros on their website. From reading the comments section of this campaign there seemed to be some issues with slight production delays, but the few reviews of the finished watches seemed favourable.

I'm including the last one because there's some pretty cool IG-worthy pics of classic cars and motorcycles, and I like cool pics of classic cars and motorcycles!

Re: Preorder: Kickstarter: Depancel - [Re]Naissance Watch
Didn't realize there was another post for this project.
So merging these together.
Depancel Watches out of France is following their previously successful Kickstarter campaign with two automobile inspired models - the [Re]Naissance (square case) & Auto (round case).
This campaign is already fully funded.
Super Early Bird pricing is about $334 for the three hand versions of [Re]Naissance or Auto
Regular pricing will be around $445
Super Early Bird pricing is about $557 for the 24 Hour/day/date version of [Re]Naissance or Auto
Regular pricing will be around $725
There are essentially six colorways of each model (gunmetal, bronze, or black for square case) (rose gold, "panda," or full black for round case)
Two movements for each - Miyota 8215 for the three hander or Miyota 9120 for the 24 Hour/day*/date* version
* - note that the day/date for these are all in French, keep that in mind.
