The simple, yet elegant, large weekly throw Moleskin Diary, December 23, 2008
There is always some feelings of reservation when purchasing such personal iems like diaries from the internet.
When I first opened the box I was a little dissapointed by the size of the diary itself. Make no mistake these are the size of a sheet of A4 paper and about 10mm or 1/2" thick.
But the layout inside is fantastic I have come accross no other item similar. The week is presented on the left page and is clear of lines to allow for scribble ect. The right side is a basic lined page for all you notes from the week. It works very well and is plenty big enough for even the most busy managers, buisness men/women, organised parents or whatever.
The craftmanship in the diary is fantasic and it is so great to see a real leather bound item, it opens flat looks very stylish and ages very nicely. The rounded edges are a nice touch too as they don't curl up like on normal diaries. OK too boot there is a good 3 yr planner in the front (standard I know) and a conversion chart, plus black pages at the back for sketches and also a rugged pocket inside the back cover for reciepts or buisness cards.
In summary:
Pros: Quality, History, Leather!, Bookmark and elastic closed holder, style, well priced
Cons: A4 size may be a bit large for some, thin width makes it not quite as rugged as the other sizes.
I would recommend the A5, weekly, Molskin the best diary you can get, make you life in one of these things and it will make you life that bit more organised.
Thanks for reading.

Love it, December 12, 2009
This review is from: Moleskine Weekly Notebook 2010 12 Month X-Large Soft Black (Moleskine Srl) (Calendar)
I have been a fan of Moleskin products for a while. A few years ago I tried out the calendar and am hooked. I prefer a paper calendar to a pda/phone because I like to be able to look at multiple weeks at a glance at the same time. Plus I like to use a paper calendar for notes and lists and to organize bills & notes from other sources. (call me old fashioned)
I appreciate that the overall size is generous, but the calendar is thin (and not bulky). The moleskin calendar is flexible (soft cover version), yet durable. Plastic covers on other calendars can break and bend, but Moleskin remains pliable. I like the general layout with a full week on one side, faced by a lined page for notes (even accommodates my large handwriting. The pocket in the back is handy for loose notes & stamps. The elastic band keeps the pages closed or can be used to mark a particular page. Plus the overall look is professional and neat. Even teh paper is a good quality!
