Ok, here's some photos of 700c wheels on those forks. The tyre is a 25mm Schwalbe Lugano. As you can see I had to put the blocks all the way up on my (Tektro R316) calipers which have a nominal max drop of 57mm. I measured the drop as about 50mm as described here.
So they're definitely not track forks. There's plenty of room for mudguards but they don't look like a 700c wheel in a 27" fork.

Edit: really important point, the crown race is JIS, not ISO!
