Assume by BT you mean Black Ti not the Blue?

The Blue looks a very cool colour combo options against an M2 MBA Midnight. Surprised no one has really mentioned that as a combo...
I forgot about the black, oops, I got the Blue Titanium :)
 
I was torn between the natural and the blue. It really did come down to the last second for me….. I went with natural for 2 reasons. One I am thinking it will match nicely with my Apple Watch Ultra…. And two I wasn’t a big fan of the pacific blue 12…. I was more a fan of the sierra blue 13. So I went with natural and I’m praying it doesn’t look gold/champagne like.

John Gruber on Natural Titanium:

Intriguingly — and adding more grist to the argument that Apple just doesn’t have much fun with colors of late — there’s also “natural titanium”, which isn’t literally natural but is achieved through a PVD tint that looks like what people think titanium naturally looks like.

On its own, “natural titanium” looks like a neutral brushed metallic shade. Side-by-side with the iPhone 15 Pro in white, however, you can see that Apple’s “natural titanium” is warmer. It doesn’t look at all gold, but there’s a wee touch of yellow to it.

I preordered the natural titanium. But I’m open to swapping it to the white one. I’m afraid the natural will catch a lot of warm/gold hue under certain lighting conditions and I might not like that. The white looks clean but I need to see it in person. If both disappoint I’ll just go for the black one.

That’s titanium hue mistero is getting me nuts.

I choose black (which actually is a dark grey): I love the matte black color, but the natural titanium thrilled me because it recalls me the vintage iPhone 6s in the silver color.

The only way is to see that color in person: if it’d be a solid grey, with no yellow/gold/champagne hue at all it may worth a swap in 14 days return window.
 
I ordered blue and natural for in store pickup on the 22nd so will see which one I like. I love blue but have had dark phones for a while so probably will do the natural. Actually thought about white as I go case-less and use a blue moft wallet for the stand only.
 
I ordered both the Natural and the Black and will send one back. (Non-Max so no point in trying to see on eBay.) There's a flagship Apple Store within walking distance, so I will check out Natural Friday AM to see what it really looks like and decide which one gets sent back.
