Wolf Winders Double Up Rotations on Bi-Directional Mode?

Wolf Winder people: does the winder double up rotations in bi-directional mode? i.e., you set it for 650 but your really get 1300? Manual states that in bi directional mode actual number of turns is double. Is this a misprint?

so if you're set to 650 in bidirectional, you might actually be getting 1300 tpd!

Dont make any difference you cannot overwind,and when watch is worn on wrist. The average person would make far more turns in say a 10 hour day than any watchwinder will.

I confirmed with Wolf: For 2.7 winder, in bi-directional mode, the TPD setting is for EACH DIRECTION, so total number of turns is doubled.

Gotta say I'm starting to like this winder.
