An elastic rubber band the notebook is kept closed. This does not sit too tight and not too loose and leiert my experiences with Conceptum after, with the time and not relevant from.
If you open the notebook, is on the inside of the lid, a cardboard flap for receipts, business cards, etc. to find.
A similar plate is also mounted on the inside of the back.
The first page is a two-sided table of contents, in which you can determine the page numbers himself. For me here might like to have a page be available or may also have an index.
The paper has a slight brown tinge is, with 24 lines lined (line spacing 0.8) and sufficiently thick. Even rollerball and highlighter breaks only minimally by and can hardly be seen on the back. Pens and pencils are almost impossible to detect. All kinds pen dry quickly on this paper and beads and not rub off. The pages are numbered 1-194. From page 165 the pages are perforated and can be separated.
Two strips of cloth to fit in brown and red are used as a bookmark.
These could be made slightly thinner and more elegant, but because they remind a bit of wrapping paper tape. The pen loop could also be a bit wider. For thicker pins or those with a rubberized grip you have been having trouble to get this because without a lot of effort in and out.
The biggest advantage of Sigel books over Moleskine and many other manufacturers of notebooks and calendars in my opinion is that the books remain unfolded on the table. You can press the spine well, without these breaks or the book warps. The open page remains on the table, the book does not work independently again.
I highly recommend both the notebooks and the calendar of Sigel. They look chic, are functional and logically constructed with a durable, rugged feel. The perfect companion school, university, job or leisure.
