Goodspeed Watches out of Sacramento have launched their latest Kickstarter for the Petrol mechanical chronograph.
Their previous campaign funded successfully, but their first campaign (for the original iteration of the Petrol) was not.
This relaunch of the Petrol updates the design, switches to a mechanical Seagull chrono movement, and is limited to only 50 pieces.
Tier 1 pricing for the first 30 units is $375
Tier 2 pricing for the last 10 units is $400
Estimated delivery is October 2020
Or if you like, you can preorder one the last of 5 units direct from Goodspeed for only $350.

The Petrol has made many small modifications to the design of the watch (new logo, new font, checkered flag border, larger pushers, silver hour and minute hand) but have kept the overall racing vibe of the original design. The largest change internally is that the watch will only be available with a handwind mechanical movement, the Seagull ST1901.
No updated photos of caseback, but they mention that each caseback will be engraved with a unique serial number.
