I have a gen P serial 16610 from 2000. It has a SEL bracelet, which from my research was the first year that they used the 93250 as a replacement for the 93150. As Matt said, the correct end links were the 580, however I have seen some with the 501b so perhaps both are correct.

I certainly can't fault the 93250 SEL bracelet, very tight and with the drilled lugholes, just as easy to remove as the old style end links.

I think the 501b was the end links before the 93250. As such, I think the 501b was used as the "service" end link.

Interesting. I didn't know they introduced the SEL 93250 that year.
It makes sense : 580 followed by 501B then SEL...the turning point of the 16610.

2 mandatory conditions if you want to keep your SELs bracelet :
1 - the holes you'll drill on the lugs must be perfectly centered with the existing holes
2 - you must enlarge the SELs holes up to 2.1 mm

If I were you the first thing I would do is to order nice 2mm bars so you can check if you have to drill the lugs 1.25 or 1.2 mm (some 2mm bars have thinner spring parts).
