I would buy the best example you can find, K series should have a SEL bracelet they made lugholes and SELS for a short time around that time. Here's mine and Dan Pierce has one as well. Earlier GMT's would have lugholes but not SEL bracelets.
 I see Dan has already posted LOL |

Lug holes or not - it's a personal preferance.
As for changing bracelets - with the correct tool it's not hard. http://www.ofrei.com/page252.html#3102 The 504 or 6111

It's matter of preference and most of the time I don't notice much difference.
The SEL is indeed a preference of mine as well.

It is personal preference. I like the clean look of the non-lug holes (don't throw anything at me please).
Midway in production of P serial number watches the solid end link (SEL) bracelets came in, they continued through the end of production M serial. Lug holes went away mid way through Y series. So some P, all K, and some Y have lug holes and SEL.
