Poirot's Homburgs

I have long been a big fan of David Suchet's depiction of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot. I have always loved his gray homburg. In the original TV movies he wore this homburg:

Last night on PBS they showed the newest installment, Cat among Pigeons and he wore a new and I thought, striking, gray homburg with a black ribbon and black edging. The only picture I could find is here:

I love the new look and it is a striking homburg. Captain Hasting's fedoras are great too. I love the way hats are treated here.

I want every garment Poirot wears. I love his gray gloves. And his spats. And I HAVE to find a gray homburg. Unfortunately I'm more of a slob than the neat nut that Poirot was, and I'd ruin it all in minutes.

I have a knox superfine that is similar to Poirot's but this french homburg pictured below is on its way from IL and fits the bill a bit more:
