For many years I used a set I bought in a local bookstore (the only place in town you could get rpgs and related stuff). I've no idea of the manufacturer, but they were bought in the early 80s and in thirty years the only wear they've got is needing the paint in the numbers refreshing.

A bit more recently I started using the red and blue d20 I got in the Torg boxed set.

These days for GURPS I use a collection of 15 or 16mm d6s from random sources. Usually I have nine on hand, three red, three white, and three blue, thus allowing easy rolling of three skills checks at a time (useful for quickly resolving multiple NPC actions, etc.).
