On playback I use a player that obeys the colorimetry info written to the video stream. I use the same TV/monitor each time.

The original Bluray video would look like this:

Color primaries : BT.709
Transfer characteristics : BT.709
Matrix coefficients : BT.709

After I convert the colours, I'd tell x264 to write this:

Color primaries : BT.709
Transfer characteristics : BT.709
Matrix coefficients : BT.601

The question was, how/why would they display differently?
I'm not sure how your references to subsampling apply.
there will be NO color difference between these 2 copies
