Default Dash gauge cluster question

Does anyone know forsure if the far right gauge in the trio on the dash displays only a clock? I have yet to see pics of interior where someone has messed with what it displays. I really would like to know if it can display the digital speedo we all loved in the 350z.

Picture of Japanese Spec Gauges (since its' RHD)




Picture of US spec gauges (LHD)



I think the digital speedo is moved to the L sided square area (between fuel and water temp area) but I think the clock is changeable to speedo. Not 100% sure yet.

I'd sure kike to know because I never use the analog speedometer since I can't see it. I always have the display set to MPH and I got used to its location so I hope the 370 keeps this feature.

Thanks, but I'm still praying it can do Speedo. Having the digital speedo on the screen near the gas gauge is just stupid. I can more easily just look at the real speedo in that case. But having it up on the dash was so nice.

If not stock, someone better offer that option. Or a heads up display... fuc yes!

I have confirmed with a Z project manager @ NNA, it is only a clock. It was also noted that everyone has complained about it.
