Help to identify unbranded titanium threaded bottom bracket

Hi,

Anyone have any clue what brand this might be? I cant find markings anywhere except on the bearings which read 'Japan' with some other letters/numbers. english thread w a 103mm spindle length. It came out of a 89 Paramount but its surely from the mid to late 90's i would guess? Any comments or thoughts are greatly appreciated!

Ahh, the CNC lightweight parts era.

103mm makes it road-specific, looks much like Titus. A lot of small makers dabbled in similar designs, defunct brands like REAL, Titus, Ballistic, etc.
