[GB] GMK Klassiker - Production completed - Shipping

Oblotzky:


Guten Tag,

I've teased this set a bit already, but here is the official announcement for it. The idea is pretty simple, I like old sets and an all time classic is OG Beige, but instead of running yet another L9/U9 dual color beige set, I opted to create one with a single base color. It's a light beige tone that is roughly between L9 and U9, and will be matched to a RAL tone. For accents, I really like the RGB accents that some IBM Model M keyboards have, and were featured in several other keysets already, but I was never too fond of their deep saturation. For this set, I picked lighter tones that aren't as strong, but still colorful, I think they fit really well.

GMK Klassiker will launch on October 15th across multiple vendors with a simple 3 kit approach. An International kit is available as it felt mandatory for this project. I wanted to do as few kits as necessary to make sure all MOQ's are easily hit, as we still have quite high lead times with GMK.

TL;DR: Boring beige office keyset is boring.

Klassiker!

ideus:
Congratulations on an excellent idea and for keeping it elegant. It's an interesting take on a classic, featuring Norde+ support from the start and covering the basic layouts; I'd say that depending on shipping costs—that is insane, recently—I'd be in.

Prelim:
if only it had icon mods, would be an instant buy!
