Hmmmm. 3600 is a very long time (for cutovers and changes to the network) and not really acceptable for transitions.
Plus, I'm not sure I trust this $TTL 3600 in your output.
For your cached DNS entries, you can check the TTL as follows, as you provably know:
And the query above confirms what is in our DNS setup:
As you can see from the next screen capture, I would set this to 5 minutes (300 seconds) if I was going to do a cut-over. I would never do a cutover with 1 hour (3600 second) TTL. This would be a receipt for a small disaster.
I suggest you check with a DNS tool (like I did above) to make sure your TTL is what you think it is.
Personally, I would not use any DNS provider which provides a minimum TTL of 1 hour. Actually, for me, that is "unheard of" for 3600 to be "the minimum", as the minimum TTL is normally 300 seconds, like I have demonstrated to you above.
