I think the Hour, Minute, Second hand are relumed. The GMT arrow appears original.
The case has me confused..

On 5.2m watches the chamfers were not this pronounced. If this was an earlier case I would say it looks right but, it doesnt look right to me on a 5.2m

Are you sure your Serial is correct? Can you post photos of the serial, model and inside of caseback?
The case looks fine to me for a 5.2 million serial number - the camera magnifies the lugs and the photos aren't really a proper perspective. 1960s lugs were more pronounced - the older they are the bigger they are!
