It looks kind of like a Tods, but the straps on the body look different from what I can find.

Also, I think that Tod's has non-contrasting piping on the seams and a little more of a 'finished' look. This looks more like turned seams and possibly a little more rugged.

They're extremely similar, though.

The 'raised' look of the straps on the body may be what you're looking for.

A somewhat spacious and fully lined interior. No fancy pen pockets on this one.
Interesting that the person didn't want any interior pockets. The lining looks really nice. I am assuming it's goatskin? Great color.

Yes, it seems most people want a pocket or two, but this one is somewhat thin for that. It could have some pen pockets, but theres only a couple inches of depth in there.

The lining is German calfskin - it's nice stuff. He just wanted something that would clean really easily, and this has a nice finish on it.
