116234 Jubilee

A quick Question, does the jubilee bracelet on the 116234 Datejust have ceramic pins in the links?

They're not on any stainless model. Only full PM.

Another huge update to the most modern Jubilee bracelets is one that not everyone is aware of, and that is that Rolex has implemented ceramic into its links to minimize stretch. It’s something that most people will never find out, but which have a huge effect on the technical functionality of the bracelet, and for minimizing stretch. I know my BLNR has ceramic.

I am a RSC watchmaker, I know a thing or two about Rolex...

Stainless steel bracelets do NOT have ceramic sleeves.

So it would be interesting to know about 116233 TT Jubilés. I believe they don't have ceramic neither. True?
