About this product
 
With this original "touch sensing" feature, the Chronos clock only gets better! It takes only the lightest contact with one of two sensors instead of the standard buttons. This feature is truly original when it comes to chess clocks. Blitz players will love its convenience and speed potential.

There is no need for the sound of a button being pressed, since the large LCD, optional lights and optional adjustable-pitch sound do the trick.

The Chronos is the most popular clock - it is the most durable and practical timer. Housed in a strong metal case, the electronics in this clock offer the ultimate in accuracy and programmability. This clock is suitable for slow and fast players alike. It will handle long, multiple time controls as well as any fast blitz, or "lightning" setting. Four anti-slide rubbers keep the clock in place and its low profile prevents it from tipping. Most importantly, the LCD display is large and clear. It also features optional lights and sound. The Chronos has approximately 70 pre-programmed and 12 user-defined time controls.

Chronos Touch Clock December 11, 2007
Reviewer: Craig Wisner from Pasadena, CA United States  
When I opened the box, turned it on, and began thumbing through the manual, I must admit I was a bit worried...it was looking pretty complicated.

However, within 5 minutes I had it all figured out.  The best thing is definently the twelve user presets.  Take a minute, configure them all, and you're probably set for good.  Want to play your custom preset 6?  Press the "on" button six times.  Pretty simple.  Check out the demo video on this site if you're having trouble.

The display is super-clear and the clock appears very well made.  As far as styling goes, I think it would match a circa 1980's Apple IIc pretty well; good or bad, you be the judge.  
All in all, I think it's great.

The Best February 9, 2006
Reviewer: Jay from New York, NY United States  
Biggest myth surrounding this clock is that it is difficult to set up/operate.  If you can't spend a couple hours learning all of its functions then you don't deserve to own it in the first place.  Black color perfected it's already sleek look.

before you purchase February 9, 2006
Reviewer: marty marion from hagerstown, MD United States  
if you play in tournaments regularly, this is the clock to have. Why?

 this clock has 12 user settings! no other clock on the market has that many- so you can set up times for weekend tourneys, blitz play, and times with delay- your choice.  the manual is difficult to understand at first-however, go to the metrowest chess site and see how easy it is to set up the clock.

i currently own a novo digital( all wood), a schach timer(easiest clock to set up- but no delay except for bronstein and 1 user setting), and a 20 minute blitz (analog)- since purchasing the chronos, this is the only clock i use!

if u only play casual chess(against people who never bang the clock or slam buttons) then buy any clock-however, if you only want to purchase one clock for all time, BUY THE CHRONOS!

the chronos is truly the BMW of clocks-the 'ultimate timing machine'.
