I used to have a Tamac Porte Passeport (in Raisin Chevre Mysore) and I gave it to my Uncle a few months ago. It was very pretty but lack a pocket for me to put stuff in it ...

I also have a "Grand Modele" agenda in Raisin/Cobalt Chevre Mysore...

A few weeks ago as I was playing with my H goodies... I discovered my dust-gathering agenda actually fits my Canadian passport VERY VERY well except the metallic rod got in the way... AND since I don't use the bloody agenda at all (to be honest... this agenda is an impulsive purchase as the colour combo is SO pretty LOL)

Instead of the agenda gathering dust... I might as well rad.mod. it and put it into GOOD use :)

SO I remove the metallic rod for the agenda... and now it fits my passport perfectly :)

Now my Porte Photo will also fit into the newly transformed Porte Passeport :)

I really like this idea. I recently purchased a vintage GM agenda cover which bears my same year of birth. I am buying it because I want this year item. However, I am not an agenda person and I also find that it fits my HKG passport too. However I don't know how to remove the metallic rod....can you teach me how to do it? Thanks.

Easy! use an industrial plier! Just bend the rod to straighten it one end, then slide the rod out :)

Thanks ... I like it especially because it is leather not angular and matellic... The fastening process is, however, a little bit cumbersome though (hard to explain in words.. once you get yours, Sydspy, you will understand), but unlike the original Constance buckle it does not rub my tummy as much :D so more comfortable.
