Title: Cherry G81-3054HAQ (Greek ANSI doubleshots)
Post by: Photekq on Wed, 23 July 2014, 07:20:28
Got this yesterday, thanks to kbdfr posting it in the DT great finds thread :) The keycaps are like-new with no shine at all, so I'm very happy with it.

It's just a regular ANSI G81, but the keycaps are really quite interesting. The Greek sub-legends are actually part of the doubleshot (the proof is in the macros). They're not pad printed, unlike most other Cherry doubleshot keys with sub-legends (3000HAV, etc.)

All photos (and extra macros of all Greek keys) in full resolution can be seen here : https://www.flickr.com/photos/115722906@N08/

A few extra photos with brighter, clearer light. Terrible background/composition since I had to take these on my windowsill  :))

Those are a lot of fun. I like the caps a lot. I saw them posted on GH too and I'm glad someone here grabbed them. Thanks for sharing the pictures ^__^

Nice finding and amazing photos, Photekq  :thumb:
This is one of the rarest sets so far on GH.
I have a feeling of Ancient Greek and Math Symbols when I look at the legends  :eek:.

I'm sorry pho, but I just can't see what you mean about the legends.  Can I have a look at the caps in person?   ;)
Seriously though, really nice set and excellent photos.   :thumb:

I would want it, anyway I don't have classic set and wouldn't mind having one. Question is are the greek letters pad printed or DS?

EDIT: NVM just read that greek letters are DS, looks even more tempting

I'll get confirmation if they have all of them later, as of now not certain they do. As pointed out in the DT discussion about this, there is a wrong legend on a key (W should have ς not ç) so if it does happen I think just do a small 12 key pack with only the correct ones. Should be fairly cheap that way, likely around €15.
