Will this work for my build? Headset/stem question

OK - got most of my parts but need a headset and stem, hopefully to work with my current bars 24.5.

I think I may get this stem:MURPHY 1 1/8" SILVER Threadless 100mm Bicycle Stem 25.4 Clamp

along with a Velo Orange headset, either the Velo Orange Threadless Headset Sealed Bearing 1 1/8'' but how do I know if it will work with the stem?

I have a gazzetta frame 1 1/8th. Any pointers for the headset? I am more particular about the stem appearance and its compatibility with the bars but want a good functioning (silver) headset as well...

Or should I get:
[h=4]Cane Creek 40 Series 1-1/8" External Cup Threadless Straight 34mm Black EC34/28[/h]
