I can't remember ever seeing such a line, having looked as I always thought one or two would be handy. Of course I wouldn't have checked many products marketed outside of the US, so and would like more detail on the report that such lines are/were avaialable from a European maker. Always seemed like a handy alternative for changing from F to ST midstream if each end were fitted with, or the line provided with a loop for loop-to-loop connection to the backing. Not much handier than an extra reel, but was curious to try the type--if they existed.
On this one, realize that, as mentioned, the sticker may have nothing to do with the line on the spool now. Also, the line may have been cut back at one end, thus lacking its rear, different-color taper. Have you looked at the monocolor end to see if it is tapered? With sink-tips, especially fast sinkers, wear against gravel and rock often leaves them pretty ragged. If the tip of a DT sink tip wears out and the line is reversed, someone may have simply cut off the rough worn section. That's what I do with mine, the worn, sinking section being of no use at the backing end.
