A discontinued piece from Cross’s 1846 Leather Collection, originally retailing at US$115. Smooth full-grain leather is banded with the collection’s signature crosshatch-textured leather for a two-tone effect, and finished with hand-turned edges, a leather-lined interior, and a snap tab closure carrying the silvertone CROSS 1846 insignia.
Complete as issued — agenda, matching Cross pen, original dated inserts, and the original 1846 Collection gift box, all together. Pieces from this collection usually surface loose and separated; a complete boxed example is considerably harder to source.

The inserts are removable and the rings open and close cleanly, so the binder can be refilled. At approximately 9 × 17 cm with six holes at roughly 20 mm spacing, the pages are very close to the widely used “personal size” standard — but we have not physically tested any third-party refill in this binder. Please compare these figures against your preferred refill before ordering.
Kept in its original box and, as far as we can tell, barely used. The leather is supple and clean, with no cracking, peeling, scuffing, or odour, and no significant scratches anywhere on the covers. The rings align correctly and snap shut without resistance. Please review every photo — we would rather over-disclose than have you surprised:
| ● | A few very small dark specks on the lower front panel, and faint tonal variation visible only when the leather is turned under direct light |
| ● | One short loose thread at the closure strap stitching |
| ● | The outer box shows sun-fading and light storage soiling, and a residue mark where a label was removed |
| ● | No warranty card, booklet, or other paperwork is included |
| ● | The agenda inserts are the original 2008–2009 dated pages, supplied as-is for completeness. They are not a current-year calendar. The notes, contacts, and blank pages remain fully usable. |
| ● | The pen appears unused, but with a pen of this age we cannot guarantee ink flow. Please plan on fitting a fresh Cross ballpoint refill. |
| ● | We could not find a country-of-manufacture marking on the item; a label appears to have been removed from the box at some point. We have chosen not to guess at it. |
