DGT North American Chess Clock 

For those just tuning in, this video is still very helpful in 2024 🤓

Thank you!

why all chess things are so fucking expensive?

Excellent video. Thank you. This video was very helpful.

Does this clock has a flag symbol for who flagged first ?

thanks, i had one question about this clock and you covered it!

Excellent excellent video, really told me all I needed to know, thanks very much. Concise summary, good explanations, AWESOME VIDEO

Nice clear video, many thanks!

Thank you for making this. I've owned the clock for years but hardly ever play OTB and never learned the clock properly. I'm recently playing more, casual OTB. The modes on the bottom of the clock require a good magnifying glass. I googled for the manual and there's a "photocopy" PDF out there but it's a mess. This video helps me a great deal although it still wasn't 100% clear to me about setting the increments. At this point I mostly want to play blitz, or "slow blitz", or "fast rapid", so I want to easily get to 5+0, 3+2, 5+5, 10+5, things of this nature. So, it doesn't matter which setting "slot" I use? Whichever I use, it will be saved in memory, yes? So if I let someone use the clock, and I get it back, it could be set to anything in each "slot", right? I wonder if there might be a more suitable clock, simpler to set.(?)

Thank you, very helpful. I'm trying to set the time control for Santa Monica Bay Chess club tournaments of G 1:55 with 5 second delay. Or as it says on the USCF tournament page: G/1:55 d5

Thank You. I would NEVER have been able to do this myself....even with the instructions.

good review

The guy narrating this video sounds like comedian/actor Tom Arnold.

Lo que trato de hacer es al terminal, un juego si es possible empezar el tiempo si tener que apagar el reloj

I have that chess clock

Yes, the XL is definitely a better clock than the 2010, but there aren't many major differences. Controlling the DGT e-boards is the biggest improvement the XL makes over the 2010.

Thank you so much 😊

There are several pre-programmed options that say "move free" e.g. #17 "5 min + 2 sec/move free". What does "move free" mean? I cannot find that term explained in the manual. Thanks!

THANKS

why its only showing 20 minutes with seconds and not with 25 or more with seconds?

this is my favorite chess clock or timer.it is very easy to use

What are the differences between the DGT 2010 and the DGT XL chess clocks?

how set 20+5 each set +5 its not 5 only +3

Thanks!

I made the order for it today

Is it possible to configure a 2 hours for the first 40 moves time control on this clock? Because I don't think there is, and that is very disappointing because 40/2 is one of the most common time settings used in tournaments.What makes it worse is that such a disability with the clock was never mentioned in any review, and as I mentioned already, that's very important information to be aware of before one buys a $45 clock, and it's terrible for somebody to leave it out.

How can I buy one?

In the Manual time controls (ie 02) why does the white clock start immediately when pressing the start/pause button instead of waiting for white to press the lever? Should it work like the pre-set timers (ie 01, 5:00) the white clock doesn't run immediately so the black clock doesn't start until white hits their lever after their first move.

Is there a quick way to start on the manual mode without having to run through all the digits of your previous setting? I like how it saves your previous manual times but you should be able to quick start it from there. Am I missing something?

how do you turn sound feature on?

How i can make a hard reset if the clock only show a number one

If I edit one of the manual options (for instance, option 4) and I play a game, is there a faster way to reset the clock to the exact same time setting without turning it on and off then pressing the check button through all the settings again?

great guide, thanks !! :-)

What price this clock

Let the time run down guy

💯👌🏾

I like dgt 3000 better though

they're based in the netherlands but their clocks are made in china
