Leadsky said:Ties, yours is a good advertisement for RM, it really looks fantastic and you're lucky and have an older one made from the kind of hide where the top surface gradually wears off. The ones they now sell don't do that however.
Professor, some 1401p jackets had Crowns, some didn't. I saw two in the past six months with Talons original to the respective jackets.Roughwear said:I put on original slider with the pre-war rectangular pull on mine as some originals had this type of Talon zip. Others had a Crown like the 1401p and 23380 contracts.
