Hi guys. This keyboard is very important to me because it was my first mechanical keyboard ever. I never converted it and all my hype quickly went to my model M122, which was my first converted keyboard. I don't care if it hasn't the better switches, or if his layout is too weird, or the profile is a crap, this thing is beautyful and I love it. Unfortunately it has some stains that are not posible to clean.
Sorry for the bad pictures.

Aaand, the not so dirty keyboard

The plate is fucking robust. Not the thickest, but the metal itself feels even more tough than every keyboard plate I ever seen.

There is something about those Siemens boards that's just cool - especially the shape of the keycaps. The colors on that one are pretty cool too!

This is quite undoubtedly a Tandberg keyboard re-branded as Siemens, which according to the Wiki landed a 5 year OEM-deal with Tandberg in 1978. I have three Tandberg boards that are pretty much identical to yours, apart from having some variations in regards of the colour and layout. Also, your board appears to be a bit older than mine as there is no ctrl or alt keys. IMHO the boards are quite nice to type on even though they do require some getting used to.

That keyboard is a beast. Definitely neat looking.
