    15CHESS CLOCKS

    Got a question? Or want to place an order call 020 7486 7015 or 020 7288 1305

    Analogue Chess Clocks are the traditional method used to time chess games and have remained more or less unchanged since their

    introduction over 120 years ago. Batteries are not needed as analogue timers are powered by a wind-up mechanism! Pressing the button down

    on your side stops your clock and starts that of your opponent. A flag will fall at the exact moment a player’s time has expired. However, they are

    less accurate than digital timers and are unable to implement advanced time controls such as increment and time delay.

    ECONOMY PLASTIC TIMER

    £19.95 each (£17 each if 5+)

    The ideal way to get your club up and running at

    the lowest cost. The timers are robust enough for

    DGT 960 CHESS TIMER

    £24.95 each (£20 each if 5+)This handy foldable pocket timer is the first

    chess clock with a random Chess960 generator.

    Also offers bonus and delay timing options. Easy

    to set. Measures just 14 x 7 x 2.5cm when closed.

    tournaments, as it is the only clock that connects to the DGT electronic chess

    board (see p.27) which is used for broadcasting chess games on the internet.

    Dimensions: 14 x 11 x 5.5cm - Big display size: digits are 18mm in height -

    Save up to 5 user defined time controls - Uses 2 AA batteries (included).

    DGT 2010 CHESS TIMER £59.95 each (£50 each if 5+)

    added time modes. Dimensions: 14.5 x 13 x 8cm. Extra features

    include a programmable delay or bonus/increment for every move.

    Digital Chess Clocks have the advantage over the traditional analogue clock as they are able to handle a wider range of time controls such

    as time delay, bonus and multi-session settings. Digital clocks show their worth in blitz games and time-scrambles, where knowing exactly how

    much time you have remaining makes all the difference! Unlike analogue clocks the digital variety require batteries, although a set of batteries

    can last an incredible eight years (based on a usage of 4 hours per week).

    latest statistics of any position in the opening: how often it occurs, which moves were played and with what success. The openings book (LiveBook) is

    updated on a weekly basis and will show you which variations are topical and how successful they are. If you want to know about a particular opening position using “Let's Check” will help you find out in seconds what would otherwise take days with an engine to uncover.
