Moleskine Daily Diary
Hardcover dated planner with one page for each day of the year
Year-dated hardback with a page for each day, sold in a pocket and a larger size. Its intended job is appointments. Plenty of people buy it as a logbook instead, because the date is already printed, so there is no setup and the fixed page ends the entry for you.
