Hi guys,

I am looking for a notebook cover A5 size for work.

been eyeing the Ulysse cover but unsure about the sizing and I can also see that there are multiple versions. Neo?

Any one here have it/ use it for work?

My biggest issue would be that it does not have a hoop for storing a pen and also whether I will get annoyed in the long run having to buy Hermes fillers?

(I know this is an Hermes thread, but if you have any alternatives to suggest I am always interested in hearing it :)

Thanks

I googled what size is A5 and I think the notebook and cover I bought is almost the same size. This one:

It's not Hermès but it uses the same leather that H uses for Volynka (Trust, I did my research, with the help of others) . It also smells really good, very close to Chanel's Cuir de Russie.

Thanks for the tip. Love the burnished leather look!!
I am missing a clasp though to keep it closed (which is one of the appeals I find with the Ulysse). But a very nice notebook.
 
SaD Light in Gold Epsom on Europe.com! Lots of colours for these showing up now.
I thought I should mention that Sac a Depeche Light is also available for SO but in single color only. I don't have further details for now. It caught my eye to see the design available for order during the SO preview that my SA showed me. :)

I believe the A5 size corresponds to Ulysse MM, which I have. I'm still using my original notepad but have also bought a Pukka Pad A5 refill that has tabs and dividers for future use e.g., here. Once you have the plastic piece from the original pad, you can replace or buy any refills so long as it fits. I use a pen that slots in neatly into the spiral binding of the notepad.

There are plenty of threads here on the forum about the Ulysse that you might find helpful:
