I see a lot of comments saying this is a Nautilus knock-off - and I can understand why - the colorways are pretty similar. However, while similar at first glance, these sets are really quite distinct.
Here are some differences:
- Horizon is PBT, Nautilus is ABS - Horizon is OEM profile, Nautilus is Cherry profile - Horizon has much darker Navy modifiers than Nautilus - Horizon has lighter, cooler (as in color "temperature") cobalt blue alpha keys than Nautilus - Horizon's modifier legends are yellow-orange (like an orange fruit), the ones on Nautilus are a true yellow (like a lemon or banana) - Horizon has greater contrast between alphas and modifiers than Nautilus - Horizon's legends are lower contrast than Nautilus - Horizon's letters are top-center, the ones on Nautilus are top-left - Horizon's legends are smaller - Horizon has a few options in terms of alternative keys, but Nautilus has many more options - Horizon costs much less

fkncbe real, his analysis is spot on. People are acting like all the colors in the nautilus scheme are actually new trademarked colors when obviously they are not, nor were they directly ripped, its still distinctly different. As critical as good colors are they are also just the cherry on the top of a product that is very nuanced so of course companies will put out versions in any popular scheme, and for massdrop to ask to work together on one that they think is in demand in their community, well, I think thats in the mission statement...
