Gilt 1675

Hey everyone, would appreciate any expert opinions on this 1675 serial 1.19x which should date to 1965 (case back IV 64).

-1575 movement
-"short" hands, minute hand does not extend all the way to second has mark
-lume responds super strong and even to UV, some lume dust/particles in bottom of dial in pic
-seller believes unpolished

does anything not look correct, and any other thoughts, red flags? thank you guys and have a good weekend

No experience at all in the gilt field, but according to what you can read here and there, isn’t it:
Correct Mk3 dial with the large Swiss t 25
Correct flat handset with small gmt hand
Nice case (better shots of the engravings would be needed for authentication but don’t recall having read problem with this seller on this topic)
Later insert (70s)
Bezel I’m not too sure

Everything looks good, those particals at 6 o’clock might be the partial of the tritium flake off from hands. Congrats in advance!
