I'm wearing this 2 year old GW 27752 now. My son took it over after 6 months and has worn it for that time. He's taken over my Star now. This thing looks pretty close to an original- it's Shinki leather well worn by someone who didn't baby it.

I had to chop off my bald head...

Nice! And with action epaulets. Love that pic with beautiful epaulet and shoulder grain. Is that a 3-part collar?

It definitely is close- I'd say yes- 3 part collar (is that a thing now? Hahaha). Anyway- it has the active epaulets because I asked John to please use thin leather on the eps. My son hung this thing in his packed closet and my new theory is that hanging the jacket helped both the collar and the eps get that original look. The copied from an original apttern combined with rough handling and hanging and no babying helped the look. This is some crazy OCD shit though...:)
