If you broke three, ... sounds like bragging. That was the go-to crankset for professionals at the time so if they were weak, the world would have heard about it.
Besides the three bikes with Campy triples, a couple years ago I saw a new Race Triple on ebay for $80, grabbed it to put on the shelf in case I might need it some day. And a couple ISO bottom brackets on the shelf too.
The big rings in the photos I posted above are from Stronglight and TA, so there are 135mm BCD options besides Campy if you need any.
