hollow links on V series YM?

[galvatron]

I just picked up my TT V-series YM. The center gold links are hollow (I can see right through them when I look at the side of the band, except the very first link connected to the face.) I was told this watch would have the new "solid link" band. Does Rolex make a TT yachtmaster with solid gold center links? Will this band eventually stretch out?

Thanks!
