Icon5 Breitling - Hollow Or Solid Links?

I'm in a "heated discussion" on another forum and would like an answer from true experts.

Are they solid or hollow. If it depends on model, then let's go with majority.

Thanks!

Every Breitling I have seen has solid links, my new Blackbird definitely does.

solid links and the bracelets do not stretch. they are a work of art on the navi and bentley.

Nothing hollow here...

Breitling makes some fantastic bracelets, IMO.

Professional I and II bracelets from Breitling are solid.

All solid.
I honestly think that Rolex is the only company in that price range (or most price ranges actually) without solid links.
