I've been using the old Silca brass chucks for years and they work fine -- simple, air-tight, secure -- on Presta valves if the gasket is in good condition and you know how to us it -- chuck cap sufficiently tight but not too tight, chuck pressed on firmly but not obsessively (in which case it's a pain to remove) -- but I recently bought a Tanaka chuck because it was on sale by Soma. Who has experience with the Tanaka and can say how well it works?
That said, a "80 out of 100" recommendation for the old Silca chuck if you use Presta valves.
