I copied the below description from another listing recently. I picked this up from Drexl (on SZ), for a friend, and it was just too big for my friend. This jacket was originally sold to Derdankund, but the stitching was too delicate for him, so I agreed to take it back. I am attaching pictures of what I mean, and the apparent "unmadeness of this piece. This jacket is NWT.

This is the jacket:

Albert from Cycle-Two has the best description for it so to quote him (sorry)

"Sartoria Digital Stitch Jacket:

From Altieri and Amadei's made to measure service at the now defunct X12. This jacket features curving arm seams with each arm crafted from a single piece of fabric. The collar is the classic Carpe Diem style that allows a lapel to form if unbuttoned at the first button. The jacket closes with two perfectly spaced hand-tied mummified leather buttons. The arm seams and back seam have been digitally stitched completely by hand. A trademark of Sartoria pieces. The back is single vented to assist with creating a sharper, more anatomic fit. The cotton canvas has been treated for an amazing look and feel and is medium to lightweight and will break in wonderfully.

Fabric: 100% Cotton Canvas"

Measurements are as follows

21" chest, 18.6" shoulders, 29.5" length

Asking $550.

To see what I mean about the delicacy of the stitching/unmadeness of the jacket please look at these two photos in addition to the one at the top and the ones at cycle-two.

The shoulder seams literally sit slightly open. It is hard to see here, the stitching is not broken, it is intact, but it does not hold the seam all the way closed:

And the vent in the back looks as such:

Obviously these photos exaggerate the effect, but the piece is clearly a delicate piece.
