Up for sale is a Size 46 Diamond Dave J21 Buco. This jacket is still in nearly new condition, however it has made the rounds on this forum. It's a little challenging to fit correct, as I found out. Tagged a Size 46, with a wonderful red/black plaid wool lining,

Asking Only $625 Shipped in CONUS, Overseas shipping will be at cost.
Dimensions:
Shoulders: 19.75"
Pit to pit: 23.5
Collar down back: 24"
Shoulder to cuff sleeve: 26.5

The following photos detail my issues with the fit. I am including these to help a possible next owner determine if it may fit them correctly. For reference, in these photos I am 6'0" and 195 lbs. Waist size of my jeans is a 36. My biggest areas included a torso (length Apx 21") that does not reach or cover my belt, and it's rather baggy through the upper arm/chest area. If you bench 245 in sets, and run around 190 shoulder press, and are around 5' 10", it may fit you perfectly! :)

I saw the recent sale of this DD, but didn't comment. I thought the jacket was able to sell itself. Plus I don't like to mess too much in other's sales threads. I thought I would rave a bit now, Randy and I are friends.

That is my thread linked first. This jacket gets more compliments on my youtube channel. It is always a hit. I believe someone just mentioned it again.

I bought that jacket and a RMC half belt from the same seller. I sold it here, it came back and sold again to Randy.

Personally I like my pictures better, so go to that thread. It's OK, Randy and I are friends. The jacket has a Shinki sheen you can see better in my pics, the video too.

In comparison I am 5' 9" 190 in my pics/vid. That makes the difference, not the jacket, the wearer. Randy bought a very nice Vintage Hercules from me. He was in house. That was a 46 also, but fit nice.

If you are my size/range, this is a Very nice Jacket. I wore that jacket a bit, very comfortable weight.

I've sold back jackets to buyers, I have bought back and re-sold a jacket. not sure where I am now.

^^ Thanks Terry, I'll have to see what's happening with my camera, it just did not represent this jacket very well and your shots are a lot better. Especially the fit photos, which I typically prefer to shoot outside). It's snowing today, so not a good option.

And yes, what Terry said is correct! Any other situation and this would not be leaving my place. :)

Had another comment on my youtube video of this jacket. Can't believe it is still here! Told two viewers it is for sale here.

Having just received one of these from Mysterio I want to lend my support to both TMitch and Aero, this IS a really nice jacket if the fits is right for the potential buyer. Carlos has raised some very good points about construction issues that may be present in any DD product. That said, the leather is really a great product with the tea core effect.

I would not hesitate to purchase from AF. Great seller.

Lance, not uncommon for AF to take a bit to respond, he’s got a lot of stuff going on right now but is truly an honorable guy.
