what are your thoughts and feelings on having five buttons instead of the more traditional four on the cuffs of a suit?

Sure, why not? It's bespoke for you.

I tired it before.

It does look silly after a while

Up to you but a passing fad I suspect.

This is Tom Ford's signature. For that reason I wouldn't do it on a non-TF suit.

Hugo Boss is also doing it on their Selection stuff...also seen it with other manufacturers. Not special and not looking very good to me.
