Probably a dumb question, but which switches do these keycaps fit? Cherry? Gateron? Etc. Sorry, I probably missed it but I'm not seeing it in the description. Then again, I do need glasses (seriously, I'm making an appointment next week) so I doubtless am just missing it.
Also, does anyone know which board/case is being used in the promo shots? I like the grey case and would perhaps like to replicate that look. It's very classy yet simple all at the same time.
Many thanks!

aptivaboyThese keycaps are compatible with Cherry MX switches. Gateron switches are clones of Cherry MX switches, so those will also work.
Not sure what board is in the images -- they are all renders, not photographs, so it may not be anything real.
You'll come across a few differently shaped switch heads here and there but will very likely have a cross MX stem on it.
Example:

So long as any keycap set states its for MX switches or has the cross stem, you'll know which kind of switch it's for.
You'll likely hear Matias/Alps switches or Buckling Spring or other niche ones that you may not recall, but I'm not gonna go into that. You can simply dig that up. Hope this helps you and any future sets you look for.
AnderStandard Topres don't have the cross at all and are not MX compatible. The Novatouch keyboard has Topre switches, but also has an MX compatible stem on them and will fit standard MX keycaps.
