Hello all,
My stating this should not be a "spoiler"; an early XYZ-Wing, which leaves basically Brute Force......BUT....a Finned XY-Wing does solve it, albeit without proving the puzzle's uniqueness through logic. Interested in reading what others come up with....

Enjoy the puzzle....


Code:

+-------+-------+-------+
| . . . | . 4 8 | 9 7 . |
| . 6 . | . 9 . | . . . |
| 7 . . | 1 . . | . . . |
+-------+-------+-------+
| 9 . 3 | . . . | . . 2 |
| 2 . . | 3 5 9 | . . 4 |
| 4 . . | . . . | 3 . 9 |
+-------+-------+-------+
| . . . | . . 5 | . . 1 |
| . . . | . 1 . | . 2 . |
| . 7 5 | 2 3 . | . . . |

I have to settle for two steps as well
Code:

+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
|c35       2       1   | 56      4        8   | 9        7        b36 |
|d358      6       48  |e57      9       f27-3| 128      148      a38 |
| 7        349     489 | 1       26       23  | 268      468       5  |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
| 9        158     3   | 4       678      17  | 1678     1568      2  |
| 2        18      67  | 3       5        9   | 1678     168       4  |
| 4        158     67  | 678     2678     127 | 3        1568      9  |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
| 68       49      2   | 789     78       5   | 46       3         1  |
| 368      349     489 | 89      1        46  | 5        2         7  |
| 1        7       5   | 2       3        46  | 468      9         68 |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+

1): (3)r2c9 = r1c9 - (3=5)r1c1 - r2c1 = (5-7)r2c4 = (7)r2c6 => - 3r2c6

Code:

+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 35     2       1   | 56      4        8   | 9        7        36 |
| 35     6      a48  | 57      9        27  | 128      148      3-8|
| 7      49      489 | 1       26       3   | 268      468      5  |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 9      158     3   | 4       678      17  | 1678     1568     2  |
| 2      18      67  | 3       5        9   | 1678     168      4  |
| 4      158     67  | 678     2678     127 | 3        1568     9  |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 68    c49      2   | 789     78       5   | d46      3        1  |
| 68     3      b49  | 89      1        46  | 5        2        7  |
| 1      7       5   | 2       3        46  | e468     9       f68 |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+

2): (8=4)r2c3 - (4=9)r8c3 - (9=4)r7c2 - r7c7 = (4-8)r9c7 = (8)r9c9 => - 8r2c9; solves it.

One step after basics.
Forcing chains:
Whatever the candidate in R7C2 (4 or 9) 8 in R2C9 is always false.
4R7C2-(4=6)R7C7-(6=8)R9C9-8R2C9;
9R7C2-9R3C2=(9-8)R3C3=8R2C13-8R2C9=>-8R2C9=>R2C9=3=>solution
Ciao a Tutti
