More information
Two ways to play in one parcel
This bundle brings together two ways of playing that don't mix. The Pegasus, with its travel bag, is for playing online on a real chess board. The DGT 2010 clock is for the games you play at the club, with an ordinary set and board. They don't connect to each other: DGT states that the DGT 3000 and the DGT Pi do not connect to the Pegasus, the board's USB-C port is for charging only, and DGT describes no connection between the Pegasus and the DGT 2010.
The Pegasus, for playing online
This is a sensor-equipped chess board linked by Bluetooth to your phone or tablet via the free DGT Chess app, which is itself linked to Lichess. There you can find a random opponent, challenge a friend or play against the Lichess computer across 8 levels. Your opponent's move appears as lit-up rings on the board; you reproduce it, then play your own. The Pegasus has no built-in engine: without the app, it doesn't play. Its 35 × 35 cm board, with 4 cm squares, fits in the bag.
The bag, for taking it out and about
DGT designed it for the Pegasus: the board fits inside along with its pieces and accessories. The matte 600-denier canvas is padded, two zipped front pockets hold the accessories, and it can be carried by hand or over the shoulder.
The DGT 2010, for the club
DGT presents it as the benchmark clock for international competitions; FIDE lists it among its official clocks. It has 36 options, including 22 preset time controls, and 14 manual settings that the clock retains in memory. A move counter and a time correction function assist the arbiter during play. It also suits go, draughts (checkers) and shogi.
Who it's for
For a club player who plays online in the evening and in tournaments at the weekend, or as a gift for that player. Before giving it as a gift, check that they have a phone or tablet: the DGT Chess app is only available in English.

No. DGT states that the DGT 3000 and the DGT Pi do not connect to the Pegasus, its USB-C port is for charging only, and DGT describes no connection with the DGT 2010. The clock is for games at the club, the Pegasus for online play.

Do the board and its pieces fit in the bag?
Yes. DGT designed the bag for the Pegasus and states that the board fits inside with its pieces and accessories.

Matching Guide
Choosing the right board size
A beautiful chess set rests on a simple balance: pieces well proportioned to the size of the squares. To choose a harmonious board, the most reliable guide is the diameter of the king's base.
Key guideline: ideally, the king's base takes up about 75% of the square.
Traditional wooden chess sets
| King height | King base diameter | Square size |
|---|---|---|
| 7,3 to 7,6 cm | 3,8 cm | 4,7 to 5,1 cm |
| 9,5 to 9,8 cm | 4,4 cm | 5,7 to 6 cm |
| 10,1 cm | 4,1 to 4,7 cm | 6 cm |
| 11,2 cm | 5 cm | 6,3 cm |
| 12,7 cm and above | 4,4 cm | 6,3 to 7 cm |
Metal, resin, pewter, brass or themed sets
| King base diameter | Square size |
|---|---|
| 2 to 2,4 cm | 2,8 to 3,5 cm |
| 2,5 to 2,9 cm | 3,5 to 4 cm |
| 3 to 3,4 cm | 4,3 to 5 cm |
| 3,5 to 3,9 cm | 4,8 to 6,2 cm |
| 4 to 4,5 cm | 6 to 8 cm |
A board that is too small can hamper moves and make the set look cluttered. Conversely, a board that is too large can break the harmony of the whole. The right size brings both playing comfort and elegance.

I ordered a WWII-themed chess set for my son's 18th birthday and I was pleasantly surprised by the finish of the pieces and the quality of the weighting of the pawns. A good experience from A to Z. Thank you

As an interior design professional, I attach great importance to interior accessories. The alabaster chess set is simply beautiful and my client is delighted with this find. A lovely discovery, thank you.

Hello, The chessboard I ordered has been delivered and the product is beautiful... I did receive the engraved plaque with my personalised message, it was delivered in a separate package and was already in my letterbox. Thank you for your speed and your unfailing support.

Very happy with my purchase from Le Palais des Echecs. Just a note, when you order, the engraving plate will arrive in a separate shipment, for me it came the same day. I recommend this shop, thanks!

Yes, a good experience, my wife gave me a rosewood root set and it's a genuine pleasure to play with. The pieces are well weighted and were carefully protected. So thanks mainly go to my wife and to Le Palais des Échecs!

I'm not a big fan of buying this kind of product online, I like to see it before buying. But honestly nowadays it's become almost impossible to find a nice traditional chess set in shops. So I ordered a wooden model online and I'm really pleased with my purchase. The set is very pretty, the pieces are beautiful and it looks great in the living room. We play regularly with my husband and the rest of the time it's almost like decoration. The only small complaint I could make is that there isn't a huge choice of storage boxes when you have pieces that aren't Staunton. Otherwise nothing to say, very satisfied.

Product matches the photo, no nasty surprises, well protected and sent on time. Thank you.

I ordered a complete chess set and unfortunately the black king arrived broken, despite the parcel being very well packaged. I sent an email to customer service with a photo of the broken piece. They replied quickly and sent me a new king free of charge. The new piece arrived a few days later, very well protected and this time no issues at all. It can happen that a piece breaks during transport, even when well packaged. What matters most is the seller's reaction when there's a problem. And honestly, nothing to fault, it was simple and quick. Very satisfied with the after-sales service from Le Palais des Échecs.

Lots (too many... ? ^-'^) of models, I had a hard time making my choice but by contacting them by email I got several personalised suggestions that really helped a lot. So overall a positive review of the service from Le Palais des Echecs. One small downside, a payment in instalments option would be welcome. Kind regards.

A beautiful fantasy chess set. The pieces are original and well detailed. The grey board is elegant and goes very well with the fantasy style of the pieces. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

I ordered a very large folding chess set on the gladiator theme in mid-August, the figures are well made and what's handy is that you can store them inside the board which folds up.

The ebony wood pieces are very pretty and match well with the board that was suggested. The customer service advisor by email gave me several suggestions based on my budget and my husband's preferences.
