Default SU Hexagon Punch vs. Creative Memories

I have the old double hexagon punch from creative memories. They cut at 1 1/4" and 1 1/2". What size does the SU hexagon punch, cut at? I'm putting in an order later this month and I'm wondering if I should pick up the SU hexagon or if it'll be the same as the CM one. In that order I'm also getting the Six Sided Sampler stamp set and I want to get a punch that'll be able to punch out those shapes.

So can someone tell me if SU's punch cuts at either the 1 1/4" or the 1 1/2"?

I have the SU punch as well as both CM punches and I'm keeping all of them.

The CM punches measure as follows:
1-5/16 on flat, 1-1/2 on points
1-3/32 on flat, 1-1/4 on points
7/8 on flat, 1 on points
21/32 on flat, 3/4 on points

Stampin' Up! measures:
1-3/16 on flat, 1-3/8 on points

So it looks like the SU one is in between the two you have on the CM large hexagon punch.

The smallest CM punch fits into the SU embossing folder spaces.

Thanks!! So I guess I need the SU one to use the 6-sided sampler set?

The Creative Memories punch will the right size to punch out the Hexagons on the SU Hexgagon embossing folder.

This helped me tremendously tonight because I wanted to make a card for the quilt card swap, and needed to know if I could layer the CM hexagons with the SU hexagon!
