Rocky is right that the names of these jackets can be awefully confusing. "Argyle" is often used as a general name for this particular cut of jacket. Made from a tweed, or a lighter color worsted wool, it is suitable for day wear (and is often just called a "Day wear jacket"). Made from black or another dark color it can be worn more formally.

The Argyle jacket is usually made with guantlett cuffs (like in Bob's picture). However, it can also be made with Braemar cuffs (like in Dave's picture), which is the same style cuff as used on the Prince Charlie jacket. Lastly, it can be made with Craill cuffs, which is just another name for a plain cuff. See the picture of the jacket I'm currently Jonesing for here:

Often the jackets are referred to simply by their cuff style. So when you say "Argyle" jacket it is assumed you mean a guantlett cuff. With a different cuff you'd call it a Braemar jacket or a Craill jacket.

But you cannot assume this to always be the case. For instance, the jacket pictured in my blog is not called a "Craill jacket" by the makers, but a "Modern kilt jacket." And the House of Edgar sells what they call a "Craill jacket" which is simply a charcoal grey jacket with Braemar cuffs. And Edgar's Argyle jackets come standard with a plain cuff, not a guantlett cuff.

So, the moral of the story is that you cannot make any assumptions when a particular retailer or manufacturer uses terms like Argyle, Braemar, or Craill. It's best to always ask for specific details about the item (or better yet see a picture -- or best yet, see a sample in person) before you buy.
