About DGT1005 Timer for Byo-yomi

DGT1005 Timer for Byo-yomi is a compact, easy-to-use game clock designed specifically for Japanese Byo-yomi time controls—making it a perfect fit for the classic strategy games Go and Shogi. It’s built to be practical and affordable, with a clean interface that lets you set up a game quickly without digging through complicated menus.

Setup is straightforward: choose the main game time, set the Byo-yomi period length, and select the number of Byo-yomi periods (from 0 to 9). The display stays clear and readable, with an obvious indication of which player’s timer is running—so you can check time at a glance even during intense endgames.

Visually, the clock matches Go aesthetics with a black-and-white design inspired by Go stones. Thanks to its small footprint, it sits neatly next to any Go board and is easy to pack for tournaments, club nights, or casual games at home.
