Broken Arrow vs Sands Of Time
Where Broken Arrow belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Sands Of Time is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (37 vs 39), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Broken Arrow runs red while Sands Of Time is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
