@Currid if anything you highlight my disparity to the normal cyclist, I need (at least) Large in Castelli to get my arms to fit in. Gore are the other option the seem to fit ~in my proportions though are baggier than I would like in the body. I will check out Giordana if/when I can. Large shoulders are due to rock climbing, finger injury is threatening that hobby for the immediate future so maybe my shoulders will wither and this problem will go away...

I'm pretty much the same size as you, (a couple of KG heavier but with same chest and height measurements). I've got a couple of winter castelli jerseys in small and medium, the small seemed like it might be a bit too tight under the arms initially but actually it's a great fit now. Worth buying a small and an medium then sending one back.
Giordana are also pretty good (which make me think that Italian brands are the way to go generally), the small FRC stuff fits perfectly.
Rapha's old jerseys were perfect in medium but now they've seemingly started catering for slightly chubbier cyclists as the norm and their jerseys are now baggy around the waist.
