Hi, Jim.
Your best bet is the good ol' stand-by made by Garde. I've got it and
have used it several times in tournaments with sighted players. It is
often the case that, in larger tournaments, you'll run into
particularly first time competitors who forget their clocks. Or, out
of interest, some folks will want to see how we work the clock in a
match. So, I make sure the clock is visible to my competitor and
accessible to me.
In fact, I will often offer to use my clock. We'll see how things go
with it this weekend. We've got the Queen Quickly tournament over at
the Purdue Chess Club in West Lafayette. It'l be game in 30, so
keeping time on my clock will be easy. I've never had an opponent give
pushback about it.

Hi All,
What are the rules in tournaments regarding chess clocks for blind
players in sighted tournaments, and are there clocks blind people can
use that work for the roules? If so, how costly are they and where can
I get one?
Thanks.
Jim
