I didn't know there were so many versions of J11. This black one seems to be very interesing.

The black one is certainly a DIY work from the 70's.
It came to my hands with non-working preset. The ball and stoper screw was missing, so I had to disassamble it. I saw it was a quite nice job done. Now, preset is working.

Preset ring is the greenish one, above it is the diaphragm control ring.

Other parts of the lens may come from black LTM J-11, but I'm not sure. Hood looks to have been machined.

Thanks for the description. It is really interesting.
