Two-tone bracelet center links on 16613 - rolled gold over stainless?

[saintintn]

Hey all,

As the title states, I've been trying to figure out if the center links on the 16613 bracelet (93253) are all 18K gold or if they are rolled/wrapped 18K gold around stainless steel. I have done some research that would indicate it's the latter. It appears that with the 116613 and onward, they are solid gold. Thanks for the clarification.

All gold tubes.

The notion that they are "rolled" gold is incorrect. They are, indeed, solid.

Your research is incorrect.

Early "hollow" center links are a solid gold tube that is formed into the familiar center-link shape, but they are indeed solid gold.

The later "solid" center links are a billet shape with drilled holes through the centers
