The Vintage Rolex Field Manual lists the 16550 with bracelet/end-link combinations 7206/58, 7836/580, 78360/580, 78360/593, 78360/501B and 93150/501B. Antiquorum’s 2020 prototype lot records a 78360 bracelet with 501B end links on case 8584610. The manual records published fitments, and Antiquorum documents one 78360/501B example. Neither source ties every combination to original delivery on every 16550. A clasp code dates the bracelet, not the watch head.
The Vintage Rolex Field Manual lists six combinations for the 16550:
 
* 7206 with end-link 58
* 7836 with end-link 580
* 78360 with end-links 580, 593 or 501B
* 93150 with end-link 501B
 
Antiquorum’s 2020 prototype lot also records a 78360 bracelet with 501B end links. These are published fitments and an individual example; original delivery still needs watch-specific evidence. A clasp code dates the bracelet, not the watch head.
