My 16570 original came with hollow end links. When I took it in for service, I .Best of both worlds = lug holes and solid end links. Prior to this I had used several bracelets. Best of both worlds = lug holes and solid end links. Prior to this I had used . My 16570 original came with hollow end links. When I took it in for service, I purchased a new bracelet and the bracelet had solid end links. As mentioned from earlier, the SELs give it a much more solid feel. It feels slightly more modern.
The solid end links on the Oyster bracelet radically change the feel of your 16570. They really make the watch feel much more modern and less rattly. At the same time, being male end links, they do add to the overall length of the watch. Best of both worlds = lug holes and solid end links. Prior to this I had used several bracelets. Sub 93150 with 580 end links, a Jubilee off a DJ, 78360 from a GMT, 78790 with 501B end links. The answer is NO, the 16570 never came from the factory with a solid center link bracelet all througout.

This is an A-serial number 16570 with solid endlinks and drilled lugs. Note the “SWISS” only on the bottom of the dial. Image: Bob’s Watches.

I wanted a black dial, none drilled case/solid endlink 16570 but did not want the engraved rehaut. That narrowed my search down to ~ 2003-2006 year examples. I suggest doing the same and seeing which iteration meets your needs. Below is a pretty helpful chart from a Fratello article on the 16570. I have a 1996 Polar Explorer ii 16570 with drilled lugs. I bought it as the head only without the oyster bracelet. Can anyone confirm the Oyster 78790A SEL will fit my watch? Thanks!

However, the center links are still hollow. In 2000, they advanced to solid end links (SEL), which were integrated into the rest of the bracelet. This provided a much more solid fit of the band to the watch. And lastly, towards the very end of the ref. 16570’s run, Rolex phased out . My 16570 original came with hollow end links.
