Help with rolex sub authenticity

Hello folks, looking at this submariner, the seller just sent me some pictures. I googled for 16610 and found few with no holes (where the bracelet attaches) on the side and few with them. All I know from the seller is that this is a 2009 model. Please let me know what you think!

Looks OK to me. The SN on the watch matches the paperwork. Lug holes were removed from the case long before the V series came out.

looks good, however you might want to take the serial number and counter check with your local Rolex office.

It might be a genuine rolex, but stolen goods. Then it will be blacklisted by Rolex. Once you send in for servicing, it will be confiscated.

Just becareful

Pictures are genuine, but take care with the seller. He can easily steal photos from somewhere else. Say him to write your name on a paper next to the watch and set the watch at 05:36 with date set at 17 for example.
