Maybe it is in modern suits. But, and my English tailor concurs, the 2 button is the more traditional English cut. Unless, you are referring to the third button that is high on the lapel and normally unseen. In which case I appologize for correcting you. But, if you go by the standard closures, it is 2 button. Check Ben Silver or the like for some info on this and several other cuts.
