T Serial 16570 - Bracelet & End Links Question

Hoping for some help. I have a T serial 16570 with drilled lugs. When I bought it, it came with a fake bracelet on it which I've removed and replaced with a rubber strap.

I'd like to get an oyster bracelet, but am really struggling with trying to figure out the question on end links.

I've seen quite a few bracelets come up here but have never pulled the trigger because I don't know what I'll need to go with them to make them fit the watch.

I've seen threads on jubilee bracelets and overall bracelets, but haven't seen specifically what end links I should be looking for.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks.

Wes, I have a mint T serial that I did a full service on last year at RSC. I put a modern 78790A bracelet with fixed end links. Ordered from Rolex during the service. 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. In other words you can put just about any bracelet you want. The "correct" bracelet would be the 78790.

how much did it cost you to order from RSC? I'm currently looking for a 78790a too but not sure if i could order from Rolex without servicing the watch
