More information
An entire room on the clock
Ten clocks means ten games at once: a club training session, a class, a friendly open tournament. The set saves you from gathering clocks one by one, and it guarantees that the whole room uses the same model: just one menu to explain, and players moving between tables never lose their bearings.
The model
The DGT 2010 is an official FIDE clock, approved and recommended by the federation, which cites it in its letter of 25 August 2025. DGT describes it as a classic clock, now the reference for international competitions. It suits blitz as well as rapid or classical time controls.
Setting ten clocks without losing your afternoon
Each clock offers 36 options, including 22 presets: 5 minutes for a blitz game, 3 minutes plus 2 seconds per move, 1 h 30 plus 30 seconds per move. The other 14 are manual settings, one per time method, kept in memory until you change them or remove the batteries. With presets, the day's time control is chosen in a few key presses, the same on all ten clocks; the numbered list of options is printed beneath each case.
For the arbiter or the organiser
- A screen symbol shows which player has White.
- The sound alert, switched off by default, beeps 10 seconds before each time control, then during the last 5 seconds.
- Both players' time and the move counter can be corrected mid-game, without stopping the neighbouring clock.
What to know
DGT does not state whether the DGT 2010 connects to an electronic chess board: this set makes no such promise. The ten clocks are supplied without a carrying case; the set is simply the way to obtain this clock, ten times over.

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.
