Everglide Aqua King
Also known as Water King V3. Most vendors don't stock the 37g version due to sticky stem/return issues (some switches in these batches have issues with the stem coming back up).
Note: There has been much discussion on Reddit, Drop, Amazon listing etc. regarding these switches having a lower actuation force than advertised. While consistent with Everglide's own website the force graphs show that the figures are bottom-out forces not actuation force. For example the 55g variant appears to be independently checked and shows an actuation point around 40-45gf.
There are 4 variations of this switch:
37g
55g
62g
67g
Force-graph
A force-graph is a good way to help imagine how a switch might feel to the press. Many reputable manufacturers publish such graphs, either in their documentation or in their patents.

Notes
These are very well lubed from the factory but some people have found the odd switch in a batch to be overlubed with return issues - especially the 37g variant.
