(Group Buy) DRY STUDIO Black Diamond 75

Closing Date: December 17th 2023

Expected Shipping time: Q2 2024

DRY STUDIO was established in Tokyo by Angry Miao product designer Stan Fu, aiming to bring advanced niche designs at an approachable price. Black Diamond 75 is born out of the design team's passion for supercars and mechanical keyboards. 

There are many good gaming keyboards and fine typing keyboards out there, but none of them strike an excellent balance. The Black Diamond 75 exactly does this, with a leaf spring mount, a 2.4G end-to-end wireless latency of 2ms and DRY STUDIO x Gateron co-developed esports switches. And combines that with a design inspired by the Lamborghini Aventador Carbonado from MANSORY.

Inspired by the modified all-carbon Lamborghini Aventador - the MANSORY Carbonado - also known as the "Black Diamond". A unique and fierce shape. This is what we aim to bring to your desk.

Custom shape. Carbon fiber material. Hand-polished PMMA acrylic with increased hardness exposes the leaf spring internals. And a solid aluminium alloy bottom cover. Just like the rock-hard chassis of a supercar.

Dry Studio x Gateron DR Rapid Ice Switch 

Custom Made DR Rapid Ice Switch

• Linear Feel
• 1mm Ultra-Fast Trigger  
• 40gf Ultra-Light Actuation Force
• Custom Esports Switch  
• Fully Transparent
• Extended POM Stem

DR Rapid Ice Switches have 1.0mm actuation travel, which perfectly complements the gaming capabilities of Black Diamond 75. In terms of actuation travel and bottom-out travel, it delivers performance comparable to optical switches. In addition, the actuation force is 40gf and the bottom-out force is 45gf. This makes the switches much easier to use when playing games when compared to ordinary switches. Your fingers will not feel tired even after a long typing session.

Extend POM stem, excellent feel and sound combo

To satisfy the needs of esports professionals, and to ensure we strike an excellent balance between typing feel and sound, DR Rapid Ice Switches use an extended switch stem. This switch stem allows for earlier bottoming-out, providing better control while gaming. DR Rapid Ice Switches does this without sacrificing typing sound.

Factory lubed for higher consistency

Gateron has over two years of experience in pre-lubing switches. This translates into a quantitative leap in feel and smoothness for the DR Rapid Ice Switch. Mechanical lubrication ensures that each switch is lubed exactly to the same specification. This also rules out any inconsistencies in feel caused by manual lubrication. And saves you a lot of time.

Minimum vibration, maximum precision

Gateron used 5 individual DR Rapid Ice Switches to perform its "Initial Contact Vibration Time" testing. With the value ≦5ms as a qualified standard, DR Rapid Ice Switches manage to achieve a value of 0.048ms to 0.15ms, which means DR Rapid Ice matches the standard of high precision and top performance switches!

High quality alloy contact points 80+ million actuation lifespan

DR Rapid Ice Switches use Gateron's latest high-quality alloy contacts, which were first developed by Gateron in 2020. As a result, the DR Rapid Ice Switches are guaranteed to have minimum oxidization, blackening, and fast conduction. No matter how long you use them, and even under the harshest of conditions.

Sturdy triple-layer metal pins

To give you more freedom when it comes to replacing switches, DR Rapid Ice Switches are equipped with Gatoron's latest "Enhanced Edition" triple-layer switch pins. These pins have higher strength and improved toughness, making them harder to bend. Since the pins are harder to bend, the switches are less easy to break when removing and re-installing them.
