Hello

i bought a jacket that needs new pocket zip pullers, i was thinking about buying diamond talon repro and then scavenge the chains but impossible to find any
I found it but in brass color and i need nickel
Brass : https://www.ebay.fr/itm/184250024916?ul_noapp=true

Any idea where to find this Talon zipper?

Thanks

I believe the one you’ve spotted on eBay is a repro. Why not ask the seller if he has access to nickel versions?

Yeah it is a repro but i don't expect to find original, even if i do i would prefer repro since i will only need the chain part, i don't want to destroy an original
I contacted the guy on ebay and he only has brass color

Maybe you could ask @Honeyman1935 ? I'm not sure but I think Field Leathers use Japanese Talon repros for their jackets.
