Anyone know how long Wheel has had an off-screen timer? I assume they must have had one to count off the time limits in Speed-Up and the Bonus Round.

I know that the current one is a monitor that counts off in tenths of a second, because they showed it on-camera after some lady solved her bonus puzzle with something like 0.3 seconds to spare.
