Can any chess timers count up? Yes. Rarely is this desirable in chess since chess timing is always countdown. However upcount timing is good for other applications! Take for example, the Ontario Curling Association. They use the Chronos Chess Clock to time their curling matches. This clock is very sturdy and has been selected for use in the courtroom and for payroll time tracking. When an employee clocks in, one button on the clock is pressed to start the time. The other side of the clock can keep track of break time or another type of work being performed.

I ordered a digital clock earlier this year and there was a problem with the order. I was very impressed by the way you were willing to take steps to "make good" on the order, including the plan to send another clock if need be. If this is your standard way of doing business, I see a long successful future for chesshouse. Keep up the good work! - Gary
Chess House has been amazing. My eight year old son is the chess player in our house. He has been thrilled with everything he has received from you. We are actually in the process of selecting items for our next order. Your customer service was excellent when we ordered our clocks, since I was concerned that the clock might not arrive for a tournament that we needed it for. Your representative put me at ease, and ensured that the clock arrived in time. Thank you for everything. - Noreen
