    Something a bit different for me, not exactly subtle but very cool.
    (I like it anyway! )

    U-Boat "Darkmoon", limited colour run of 150.
    Comes in Yellow orange and this blue.
    Colour is Marmite, but I love it.

    An Italian Brand, made in Tuscany.
    Its a chunky boy at 45mm diameter, case thickness in 16mm, but the curved crystal makes it wear smaller that it might look.
    Still big though!

    The Movement and dial is oil filled?
    You can see the Bubble at 12 o'clock.
    Tell the time AND check if your kitchen table is level!

    The oil fill gives the dial almost an underwater "glow" in the right light, very groovy.





    From the Website:
    "The new U-BOAT Darkmoon range characterized by the innovative concept of “Oil Immersion”, tested for the first time in the Capsoil model, where an oil bath completely immerses the Swiss Ronda quartz movement and completely surrounds the dial turning it into a full, deep color"

    Whatever,
    its pretty unusual and cool.

    Hardwired 10kVA balanced mains powering entire system

    OPPO 203 (Modded: Linear PSU, i2s output to Dac) - Roon Endpoint, HDMI input used for all things Streaming/ PS5 /AppleTV ... also good for movies apparently?
    MUSIC PLAYBACK

    I like the overall style if not the colour, but how do you change the battery without all the oil coming out?
