The best thing to happen to game timers since the hourglass.

Just swipe to set, and play. Even complex game time controls are made so magically simple, you really don't even need this user manual.

ONE GAME CHANGING CLOCK. TWO BEAUTIFUL EDITIONS.
TEMPEST DELUXE CHESS CLOCK $79
The finest materials. No compromises.
Made with premium genuine leather and crafted from a block of solid black walnut. Each Tempest Deluxe is unique, with variations in both leathers and woods. Natural materials patina beautifully with use. It's internally sound dampened and weighted with heavy gauge steel, improved no-slip base. As refined as it gets and worthy of its place alongside any of your most valuable sets. It's your move.
TEMPEST CHESS CLOCK - CLASSIC $39
Our gold standard is all black.
Bundled with the same software and made with the same smooth rocker mechanism as the Deluxe edition, Tempest Classic features ultra-smooth synthetic (vegan) leather on a durable polycarbonate base. Finished in contrasting matte and high gloss piano black. An improved no-slip base is ready for time scrambles. Weighted with heavy-gauge steel. Tempest Classic is refined and battle ready. It's your move.
