Fake.

Bezel
Rehaut
GMT hand colour

Font on the date wheel is suspicious too but to be honest the engraving on the rehaut is the main issue.

It's an obvious fake. Just Google a picture of a real one and compare. The first obvious sign (apart from the bit that's fallen off) is the green paint on the 24 hour hand. It should go up to the triangle and not stop short by a mm or two.
You say it's movement looks good. Do you have a photo of that. Just out of curiosity.
