I have actually recently tightened the ribbons and will be ordering ribbon replacements (just the aluminium bits) to see if these may give me performance improvement. Very easy to replace.
These tweeters are a few kilograms each and are very sturdy. I'm sure they will last a long time.
Presumeably you discovered/worked out who the OEM supplier of these drive units is?
The only equivalent is Aurum Cantus G3. How they compare is anyone's guess. I'd have to measure them myself to know. But physical dimensions are the same as far as I can tell.
I might even order a pair for safe keeping while they are still being made. But replacing the actual ribbon is rather simple. Only difficulty is not to have anything metal being suckled into the tweeter once the protective mesh is off.

But can't we find replacement ribbon tweeters from companies like seas or vifa, just like normal dome tweeters. Or is getting the exact match more difficult here
I'm not aware of either of these making ribbons.
However there's a few companies from budget to high end making ribbons.
RAAL, Aurum Cantus, Foundtek, Monacor to name a few.
