Bronze vs Stainless Steel

We're in the market for a larger vessel, and are looking seriously at a Grand Banks 42. One aspect of it is that it has the stainless steel upgrade, which means that much of the normally bronze exterior hardware such as cleats, hawse holes, etc. is stainless.
Personally, I prefer the look of bronze but have no sense of whether stainless is better wearing, or needs less upkeep.

Any thoughts?
