I have always loved their covers. Fits perfectly, ships immediately.
Lately (perhaps because I am a repeat customer?) they have not only shipped what I ordered, but also thrown in another set in a different finish for no extra charge.
When I made Pink Oktober, they also threw in a brown leather set. Just in case I changed my mind I guess!

I am reskinning my Moskva 5 folder. I was going to honour The Dude by making the White Russian. But they also sent me a tartan set, that they dont even show on their site!
(yeah I know Jeff Bridges shoots Wideluxes, but that is Jeff Bridges, not The Dude).

 
Oh my, either of those would put the "pimp" into pimped! I think my Moskva 4 will remain as-is!

Unfortunately no-one seems to do replacement leather for the Argus C3 Matchmatic - on this side of the pond they are dead rare and I'd love to make it look like new again.
