Bezel reflections

At an AD today looking at the GMT Master II’s. I noticed something interesting. I observed the reflections from the bezel edge on the TT, SS and WG. The two gold bezels gave off a reflection similar in effect to a Rolex fluted bezel but the SS didn’t. Under a loop the polished edges and brushed edges are the same. But not the reflection. Others notice that?

I didn't say it very well. The edge of the gold bezel shimmers under lights and the steel does not. Better?

I have noticed that too. Yellow gold fluted shimmers more garishly than the steel fluted one or smooth bezel Oysters
