DGT2500 Chess/Game Timer

Really large display and easier to set than many chess clocks. The best out there at present.

Have owned many chess clocks over the years - this is a clear 'best buy'.

Its sleek design is not only visually appealing but also incredibly user-friendly. Setting up the timer for different time controls is perfect. the switch mechanism at the top feels far more tactile than most other chess clocks and I have used it at my local chess club with the same enthusiasm that i share. The only complaint i have gotten from others is that it requires slightly more pressure than other chess clocks (but for me this is a positive)

Calidad insuperable y a un precio aceptable, sin duda DGT la mejor marca hasta el momento.

Addressed small issues from previous timers, now it's as good as it gets. Official FIDE chess clock. Lots of presets. Intuitive adjustments for tournament directors. Shows seconds at all times. Smooth, quiet operation during play. The screen has much better contrast than the previous generation. The bright red color is a little garish, but I prefer it over faux wood. I wish they made a charcoal grey version or offered shell upgrades that fit over top like a kleenex box coozy. Anyway, if you play chess in tournaments this is the best option to bring. If you play in North America there's a new updated North America version that has a slightly lower MSRP. They would be the only two I would buy right now. If I needed to plug into chess tracking software I'd get the DGT 3000, but I would be wary of it being from a dated generation of timers. It seems it could be due for a refresh. I'm counting on this timer lasting me at least 10 years. One small thing, the box didn't state that it took (and included) AA batteries. So if you need that info, here it is.

Öğrencilerim için almıştım. Gayet güzel. İstediğim zaman ayarlarını rahatlıkla yapabiliyorum. Örneğin 7+3. Hazır zaman kontrolleri de çok güzel. Ama fiyatı pahalı. O yüzden 4 yıldız

Ottimo timer, acquistato come regalo. Il comportamento del tasto non è esattamente lo stesso dai due lati, ma niente di particolarmente fastidioso. Da un lato il tasto rientra leggermente di più che dall'altro, e la pressione necessaria a farlo scendere è leggermente diversa tra i due lati. Chiesta la sostituzione credendo fosse un difetto di quel particolare pezzo, ma anche il prodotto sostitutivo presentava lo stesso comportamento, quindi dev'essere una caratteristica del prodotto.

This is simply the best clock for playing with. Large tumbler, large numbers. I only wish FIDE would incorporate a reset button.
