Many thanks to Daycraft and Mr. Foreal Lee for sending me this 2013 Executive Diary to try out. I do like Daycraft products, some of which are very clever, like these Retro Arcade notebooks, and all of which are useful and well-made.
The 2013 Executive Diary I received is an A5 size, about 5.8 by 8.3 or roughly the same size as a Rhodia No. 16 notepad (my favorite). It's made of a very sturdy yet soft Italian PU leather, and I really like the clasp and elastic closure that keeps it secure. The paper is 70gsm, not especially fountain pen friendly but I've learned to live with a bit of bleed through or shadowing.

The paper is, as I mentioned above, 70gsm and therefore a bit on the thin side. I had some shadowing with a gel ink pen I used, as well as with one of my Pilot fountain pens.

What did surprise me what when I switched to a Noodler's Ahab Flex and used a gentler store with the nib--no shadow at all. So I will have to try not to press so hard and see how that works as I use this more in the new year.
Finally ,there's a very nice pocket in the back of the Diary for papers, receipts, whatever you need to carry.
If you're looking for some great stationery products besides a 2013 Diary, take a look at their website. I like these Astrology notebooks with a landscape view, as well as their Signature notebook. You may want to take the plunge and place an order for some really well-made notebooks and journals. And check out their Facebook page, there are some great photos of their products in action.
