FWIW, the Vuelta Pista crankset isn't very good.
There's no quick way of finding out if it's JIS or ISO huh. The reason I ask is because I saw that also but then I also saw this from Phil Wood's website:

BRS08S Stainless Steel Bottom Bracket 68/73mm - JIS
$119.00
Stainless Steel Bottom Bracket
Description: 68/73mm - JIS Length(mm): 108 Offset(mm): Sym Weight(gm):208

Am I missing something here? FWIW, here's a pic of the bb in question. I'll try and hit up the lbs tomorrow and pull out the bb to see if there are any etches on it to describe what it is, if PW even does that.

And yea, I've heard a multitude amount of reviews about Vuelta and how bad they are.
