Black Winter neck magnet polarity

Hi.
I've got a brand new Blackened Black Winter set and was surprised that it is SN-SN polarity instead of the usual Seymour SN-NS. I don't have another BW neck at hand right now so I need some help. Can anyone, please, confirm the polarity of the inner (logo) coil of the neck BW pickup, regular or blackened? I tend to consider this a factory mistake but maybe I don't know something about this set.
 
How did you measure it?

With a gaussmeter, rechecked with a usual magnet. Logo coil is definitely south, it repels with bridge pickup logo coil. Whole magnet structure is correct, all 3 ceramic bars are oriented properly. But for the bridge pickup, not the neck one.

Not a ​big deal really, I can swap the magnets or rewire to keep it in phase with the bridge, but this one goes to my friend and I don't like to open brand new things that I don't own.
