Chess clock suggestions

I'm thinking about buying a chess clock if/when I have some extra cash... it's been too long since I got my clock. Any suggestions?

Depends on your use. I can recommend two clocks- the DGT 1002 and the DGT 3000. DGT 1002 has less time controls and stuff but is cheaper, while the DGT 3000 is a pricier clock complete with all the time controls.

DGT 3000's pretty good and popular, but I prefer DGT 2010 (kinda easier to use for me), plus it's cheaper

yes, the DGT 2010 is a pretty capable clock too, but its kinda old and the design's a bit outdated. The DGT 3000 is pricier but comes with more features, looks more aesthetically pleasing.

it's easier for me because when i got a clock 2010's were pretty much the only option

I've got a LEAP clock, which is pretty good. It has 29 preprogrammed settings, and you can also set a custom time. I would recommend it. Or you could pay £20 more for a DGT which does pretty much exactly the same thing.

I have a Chronos which is really good but expensive if you buy new.

I think you should get the one that is programmable via your smart phone because I’ve been curious about how well it works and don’t want to take the plunge myself!

Jealous of you sir those are the best

The Z-Mart Pro series of clocks are nice in my opinion, though I don't think they're as durable as some of the models mentioned above...best to think about a bag or case to carry your clock in as well good luck

Yep, it's cheap, but like I said, it has less time controls and stuff
