Are 16610 bracelets brushed or polished on the side?

Can anyone confirm whether the bracelet on a 2009 16610 Submariner is brushed or polished?
I'm currently looking at purchasing one and the one in question, the links are brushed on the side.

I read somewhere that from 2008 that on Subs, the sides of the bracelet is polished?

A brushed finish on the link sides is correct for all 16610 Submariners.

Best feature of the 5-digit subs, IMHO.

Depends on the bracelet.

I purchased a M series 16610 in 2008 from a AD and the sides were brushed
