The trophy context extends beyond that caseback. Rolex became title sponsor of the 24-hour Daytona race in 1992, and engraved Daytona watches became part of the victory ritual alongside the trophy. Later winner watches are reported on the two-tone 126503, though Rolex's own race coverage names no reference, so the 2011 116523 reads as an earlier Rolesor expression of the same race-prize pattern.
