SNKB-M1993-EAM-102

Notes

With no references to this part number online prior to my purchase of this keyboard, I pretty much had the pleasure of introducing this Model M to the community in late June 2020. It's otherwise a pretty standard Model M with an interesting badge and contrast to previous Ambra keyboards discovered. Unique is the lock-light overlay that features small, circular cut outs for the LEDs and the lack of blue-grey case colour other Ambras have.
