Quickset date wheel turns both ways?

I recently purchased a pre-owned Rolex Ref. 68273 31mm Date-Just quick-set for my wife. When setting the date, I noticed that the date wheel can be turned either direction and the date will advance or retard. I don't think this is usual, because on her lady date-just, the date can only be advanced. I believe that the Ref. 68273 has the cal. 2135 movement. Has anyone ever seen this? Does this indicate that the watch needs repair? Thanks.
