It looks 1980s to me.

Worth getting? I like that it has no belt loops

Or maybe even 70's.

If it will fit and you like it, why not? Would you wear it?

Oh yes I would wear it, it looks great to me. Reminds me of the suits from the movie Tough Guys 1986 (Kirk Douglas & Burt Lancaster) or even American Psycho with Christian Bale that took place in the 80s, wide lapels were still in.

I think with my VS custom and wingtips it would look perfect.
I called Paul Stuart New York yesterday to see if they could determine date by serial number but no so I came to you guys.

Update: So seller emailed back saying there is enough material at sleeve to let out. I noticed that there were 2 other people watching the suit so I went ahead and bought it.
Not many DB out there for sale and this one looked nice enough. Y pattern for the buttons, no holes tears.
Now I just need some suspenders and it will be a great outfit.

Thanks Rodney!
Whoever previously owned it really took care of it. Probably be wearing it memorial day weekend out with the family.
Tailor I take it to only charging me $22 for sleeves and $9 for hemming trousers. They do solid work.
