I didn't paste the headers in the actual order, I pasted them in
chronological order. 
  
Why would you discount X-Received header ? It clearly shows the
initial timestamp when internal Google infra handled the message.

X-Received is not a standard header, so irrelevant.  And even if,
Received lines are prepended, aka time went backwards.

Both the same second.  But they are also backwards.
