[AndersB]

Does anyone know about what year the lug holes on the 16710 GMT II disappeared?

Mid Y serial is when the change took place, as with anything with Rolex it's more of guesstimate than absolute fact. In my experience the TT & Gold Sport models tend to lag a bit behind when comparing time lines to SS.

The Gold ones tend to be ahead of the the others YG subs had SEL long before SS and gold DJ's lost lug holes much earlier than the SS models did.
