#10 brass zipper is pretty hard to beat, but of course it all depends on what you're doing with it.

Just my personal opinion, but, I won't buy ANY type of anything that has plastic zippers on it. The only exception to this is school backpacks for the kids, because finding one (that they are willing to actually carry:wacko:, and that I can actually afford ) with a metal zipper is nearly impossible. This means that, when school starts in August, I am usually fixing de-zipper-fied zippers by December or January

Bonus tip: if your metal zipper is starting to get sticky/hard to zip, rub a block of paraffin wax over it a couple of times.
