thanks for any reply

It's the lighting angle, sometimes it looks brushed and sometimes it looks glossy.

so from what i heard the clasp is not 100% matte but matches the blackbird blacksteel case tone correct? the bezel is matte

very tricky colors

I think it matches closer to the bezel than the case. It's not polished, as Shark said it has more of a brushed finish.
