You want a nice tournament chess set? You can trust this set. It is perfect for any time of play and for any style of play. Pawns are a bit bigger than normal. The set is ergonomically designed with the tournament player in mind. I love this set. I'm very happy with it as it works very well when doing game analysis for myself or going over master games. You want a good set then go with this set. You'll be glad you did!!!

I bought this specific Zurich set, because of the beauty of all the pieces. This series has the best looking King and Queen, the Bishop and the Knight look slightly better than most other sets, and the battlements from the rook are in the correct height unlike most other sets.
Despite this set being slightly larger than the other sets, the pieces feel very nice on an 2.25" board. Also, according to the FIDE rules, the height of the pieces may differ 10% from the standard sets with a 3.75" King. This means that this set is approved for tournaments.
So it's a great chess set which I do really recommend you to buy!
