Question for the experts:

To my eyes, the steel on the previous-gen GMTs seems to be brighter, more silvery in appearance, than the new ones, or the SS sub for that matter, and I've verified this by inspection in person and via photos (OP's photos are a great example of this). Is either the composition or the brushing different on this watch?

Beautiful piece, though....

The new GMT has a more luxurious look.
