The DGT1005 Byo-yomi clock is programmed with Byo-yomi time options, making it especially suitable for games such as SHOGI (Japanese chess) and GO. It features a beautiful design and simple operation. Just set the game time, the Byo-yomi period, and the number of Byo-yomi periods (from 0 to 9), then start the clock.

Byo-yomi is a time control method used in chess (Shogi). Initially, a time interval is set (e.g., 1 hour) during which you can make any number of moves. After this time expires, each subsequent move must be made within a strictly defined time (e.g., up to 2 minutes per move). The clock has a clear display that facilitates gameplay.

Additionally, its compact size makes it easy to carry and store. The DGT1005 Byo-yomi is ideal for game tournaments, club play, or casual Shogi or Go games at home. The clock emits sound signals to indicate breaks, with a long siren at the end of the period, similar to traditional Byo-yomi timing. DGT has developed the DGT1005 Byo-yomi as an economical yet very durable and attractive alternative to more expensive Go timers. The DGT1005 Byo-yomi operates with one AA battery (included).
