Rolex 16613 T

Does anyone know what the T stands for on a 16613. Looking to purchase a 2007 16613 T and wasn’t aware the T existed until now. Thanks

T means transitional.

The T will have gold through the clasp, solid end links, and maybe an engraved rehaut (although I can't recall if the 2007 models do.). My 2009 16613T LB has engraved rehaut.

These models have hollow center links, unlike the 6 digits with solid center links.

No holes indicated between the lungs.
The lungs becomes 16613T (the letter “T” is a Rolex abbreviation which means “trous borgnes” sunken holes).
