Baume et Mercier Hampton Square

opinions? This watch and the sub were what I had to decide between. I chose the Sub, but I do have the option to still get the Hampton if I want. I'm torn between the Rolex and the Baume et Mercier. What do you guys think. I tried it on and the 45mm case fits my wrist absolutly perfect, while the sub is a tad bit small, but still suits me pretty good. Both are about the same price in the end. I chose the rolex in the end because I thought it would be more durable with day to day wear and would work with more clothing options, but the BM is still calling my name. What do you guys think






I have not yet determined whether my 16800 is a matte dial or not, i did not know there as a difference when I bought it, and I cant remember what the dial looks like.

Sub is a MUCH better watch...
The Baume is a designer watch, the Rolex is a quality timepiece.
