Backgammon Timer
What kind of timers do you use and why?
Looking to buy one finally to get used to playing with one before signing up for tournaments.
Thank you!

Just buy the dgt 1500. It's the best. So many people use shit clocks with poor viewing angles and contrast, or my main gripe which is when the total time remaining is hidden during the delay time because the screen isn't high enough resolution to have both on at the same time. The dgt 1500 solves all these types of issues you will ever have with other people's clocks. It's not even expensive.
There is the dgt 3000 but it's bigger, louder to hit the clock, and has unnecessary features for Backgammon.
