Is this 3roll 2 ? Can't tell with it buttoned.

Yessum.

I don't think so. Ticket pockets, suppressed waist and working (or faux-working) cuffs are not typically congruent with the 3 roll 2.

The definition of a 3r2 has nothing to do with any other characteristics of the coat. I suppose that this one could be a 3r2.5 but it is a ****** 3r2 or ****** 3 button as the lines are just too poor.

A true 3r2 has no our purpose for the third button, so I spose that this one wouldn't be, the poor stance made me think so. Don't buy please.

That's looks like a Brunello Cucinelli jacket. It's most likely a 3 roll 2.5 which is what all of the BC coats I've seen are. You can sort of see the lapels are taut with the top button fastened.

And, yeah this should be in MC.

Of course not. But there are characteristics which are typically found along with a 3 roll 2 lapel.

The definition of a spoiler has nothing to do with any other characteristics of a car. And yet you don't usually see a spoiler on a Cadillac sedan.

Pattern matching is terrible on that...

Another characteristic of the jacket that would assume it a 3 roll 2 is the fact that is dartless like a true american sack. However, there are a lot of other attributes that are all over the globe as far as style goes.

Tom Ford would disagree.

hey kaze.
take a look at the lapels. see the the lines of strain down the length.
that tells us that the top button was not meant to be buttoned.
thats regardless if the roll goes down to the button or half way down.
see the lines of strain at the bottom button, it was not meant to button.

Good point.
