The variation that are in these boards feel like the most modern feeling vintage switch I've ever tried. They feel scarily similar to holy pandas, and even sound similar.

Re: Post your keyboard/keycaps!
Great taste in keyboards, between smith corona leaf springs (smoother than vint blacks btw) and your secondhand s*emen boards.

Re: Post your keyboard/keycaps!
nice s*emen
Very good looking boards, love the cap mixing you've done on the Siemens. All you need is to get them converted.

Re: Post your keyboard/keycaps!
And some Siemens keyboards! The one with more colorful keycaps is something I pieced together as it was missing half the original keyset. These switches feel amazing.
Do terminals count too here?

There is a switch under each cap of the keyboard, of course
On the other hand, apparently (I didn't open the board) there is a sort of protective plastic sheet surrounding all switches with just a round opening for each slider. Thus all caps sit a tiny bit higher than they would without it.
I'll try to post a pic later.

Sorry, I meant to say that a "Siemens board with a proper Siemens '7'" has a switch underneath. The font was designed about 1930 under Siemens guidance, based on a Prussian precursor, and is known as DIN-1415. It is often seen in Germany, where it is also used for public road signs (in its modern variant).

After being happy with this font for more than 50 years, they switched to Univers towards the end of 1980s - along with the change from doubleshots to lasered keycaps, followed by the replacement of mechanical switches by rubber domes. (Thus, if you find a bord with a proper Siemens "7", you can expect a switch underneath.) Those rare mechanical "Siemens" boards made nowadays are based on Cherry keys and have Cherry-Helvetica labelling.
(edit: Univers, not Universe)

That reminds me of the keycap font SIemens used in the 1970s/80s,tigpha wrote: ↑... Getting really old-school now!
edit: Sorry, I have to correct myself: For the umlauts , they did it differently such that the letters have their regular size and smaller dots are put on top. Furthermore, this only shows the construction - the end result was not as edgy as this.
