I'm looking for a nice leather planner with a replaceable calendar and a section to take notes, etc. I would also want it to be nice enough paper to use a fountain pen on. My wife has a photography business that she runs in her spare time, and this would be for her to use when scheduling appointments for shoots and things like that. I want to find something like this for her birthday, which is at the beginning of October. Any ideas?

What size are you considering?

Have you considered the ARC system at Staples? It is a Levenger Circa-like system that allows the addition/replacement/repositioning of the pages. They offer a calender as well as lined paper. It is easy to mix and match. The ARC paper is FPF and they do offer a punch if you want to use your own paper.

I've seen people post cool systems but can't remember the name, and I don't use planners, but I think I remeber who had the link, lemme see what I can dig up
I would second the ARC system. They come in 2 different sizes and has lots of options. I was very surprised how well the FP worked on the paper. It was very smooth.
Franklin-Convey has a large selection of planners. I have used one of them for years. The paper does work with a fountain pen as well. Not really a planner, but Mitchell leather has a filed notes cover that might work if you could find a calendar that you like that would fit. I am sure the Mitchell cover is much nicer than Franklin's options.
first i would find the planner that your really liked and then i would find the binder...i enjoy planner pad....and then i use a dodge binder that i got years ago...perfect match...i know planner pads sells binders too...

Another option worth considering is to find some nice paper and print your own planner pages (very easy to personalize and customize). There are several free apps/programs available that work well. I've used this one with good luck: http://www.diyplanner.com/node/6210
