Bermuda Turquoise vs S 5040-B60G

Where Bermuda Turquoise leans blue, S 5040-B60G reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 12.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
