DGT Electronic Chess Pieces

DGT Timeless Electronic Chess Pieces
Regular & Weighted

Handmade wooden pieces in the classical Staunton profile, built to work with any DGT electronic board. Each piece is fitted with a felt base so the board's sensors read every move cleanly — whether you're recording a club game, streaming a broadcast, or playing online through DGT LiveChess. Choose the standard Timeless set for everyday tournament feel, or step up to the Weighted set for extra heft in hand.

Timeless Electronic Pieces

Handmade wooden pieces in the classical Staunton profile — clean, understated, and finished with a felt base. King height 95mm (3.7"), set weight 680g (24oz). Includes 4 queens and a 2-year warranty. A lighter-in-hand set for players who prefer a standard tournament feel.


Timeless Weighted Electronic Pieces

The same handmade wooden set with additional weighting for a substantial, tournament feel. King height 95mm (3.7"), set weight 920g (32.5oz) as shipped — see the individual piece weights below for exactly what that includes. Includes 4 queens and a 2-year warranty. The premium step up for players who want extra heft at the board.

♟

Choosing between weights: Both play and record identically on the board — the difference is purely feel in hand. Regular Timeless suits everyday play and travel; Weighted is the heavier, more substantial set favoured for a proper tournament feel at home.

Works With Your Board

Both Regular and Weighted are read by the same sensor technology used across DGT's current board range.

✓

DGT electronic boards & Smart Boards

Timeless pieces are recognized square-by-square on any current DGT electronic board — including the DGT Smart Board and DGT wood Tournament e-Boards — as well as the DGT Revelation Chess Computer.

✕

Not compatible with DGT Centaur

The DGT Centaur uses its own piece-recognition system and requires its own compatible piece set — Timeless pieces, in either weight, are not designed for use with it.

Key Features


  • Automatic move recognition: Each piece is read individually by the board's sensor grid, so every move is captured the instant it's made — no manual notation required.

  • Tournament king height: Both weight options stand 95mm at the king — in line with FIDE tournament proportions and sized to match DGT's standard board squares.

  • Felt-bottomed pieces: Every piece is finished underneath with felt, protecting the board surface and keeping sensor contact clean and consistent.

  • Handmade wood, two weights: Choose Regular Timeless for a standard tournament feel, or Timeless Weighted for extra heft in hand — both are handmade to the same classical Staunton profile and read identically on the board.

  • Extra queens included: Both weight options ship with 4 queens total (2 per colour), so under-promotion never leaves you short a piece.

  • Broadcast-ready: Pairs with DGT LiveChess software and any current DGT electronic board for recording, analysis, and live-streamed games.

What's Included

Each set — Regular or Weighted — includes a full complement of handmade chessmen in light and dark wood tones, with 4 queens total (2 spares per colour), and is backed by a 2-year warranty. DGT electronic boards, clocks, and connection kits are sold separately, so you can pair these pieces with whichever board setup you already have or are building toward.

Care & Maintenance

Keep the felt base of each piece clean and dry — dust or debris on the base can affect how reliably the board's sensors read a piece. Being handmade wood, Timeless pieces (Regular or Weighted) should be kept away from direct heat, sunlight, and excess humidity to prevent warping or finish damage over time. Store away from extreme temperatures when not in use.
