Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 18K Yellow Gold & Stainless Steel White Dial Ref. 116523 Circa 2011

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 116523 is one of the most iconic chronographs ever produced, combining motorsport heritage with the timeless appeal of Rolex’s Oystersteel and 18K yellow gold Rolesor construction.This circa 2011 example represents the later production phase of the 116523, benefiting from refined finishing and the updated bracelet architecture introduced across this generation. The 40mm Oyster case delivers a strong wrist presence while maintaining classic Daytona proportions, making it a highly versatile luxury sports watch suitable for both daily wear and collecting.The white dial configuration provides crisp contrast against the applied gold-tone hour markers and black-ringed chronograph sub-dials, ensuring excellent legibility and a clean, balanced aesthetic. The fixed 18K yellow gold tachymeter bezel reinforces the Daytona’s racing DNA, allowing precise measurement of average speeds.At its core, the watch is powered by the Rolex Calibre 4130 automatic chronograph movement. Renowned for its robustness and precision, the 4130 features a column-wheel chronograph mechanism and approximately 72 hours of power reserve, making it one of the most reliable in-house chronograph movements ever produced.This example is presented in good pre-owned condition, showing light signs of wear consistent with age and careful use. The watch is supplied without original papers, however it has been fully inspected, authenticated, and verified as fully operational.
