So I'm wanting to get a new watch and the style I'm after is a men's dress watch, sort of a classic look with a brown leather band, white face, gold or rose gold bezel. These are what I've come up with so far - thoughts?

Frederique Constant and Hamilton Viewmatic:

I like the Frederique Constant better. I just like the face w/ the roman numerals and seconds counter.

I find the rose of the hamilton a bit too harsh against the almost black of the band, it's a little too black and pink. but that could just be the bright lighting of the picture.
 
I'm going through a rose gold phase, so I'm leaning towards the Hamilton Viewmatic in the rose gold (rather than yellow gold). I love the Frederique Constant too, it has quite a classic look about it, but I'm favouring rose gold.
 
So I wound up ordering this Frederique Constant from Amazon. It had a little smaller face than the one pictured above and arabic numbers instead of roman and a LOT smaller price tag as well which was even nicer!! They are really lovely watches - had never heard of them until I saw them on Bloomies website and Amazon has them for wonderful prices - can't wait!!
