Some soft requirements of what I'm trying to find.

Want it to be like a calendar in the front, tons of room for random notes in the back, wouldn't hate having that reversed in position Plenty of pages (around 200-300) Fits in back pocket At least weekly calendar or enough room to plan one or two things a day Dot grid pages Limited bleed, going to use a fountain pen Weatherproof hard cover (or durable enough for a year of carry)

Thanks in advance!

So far I've found a few such as the Kaweco Special S. and the KOH-I-NOOR Short Mechanical Clutch.
