2021年9月4日 · For the 9th Chess Olympiad, held in Dubrovnik a city in former Yugoslavia in 1950 a new designed chess set was introduced. It becomes what is now known as Dubrovnik 1950 chess set. This review is about a Dubrovnik 1950 reproduction made by a small but very successful family business, Noj Ltd Slovenia.

2023年8月9日 · Also, the Noj work and craftsmanship are recognized as being of the highest quality. I bought my first Noj Dubrovnik set a good number of years ago and I along with others fell in love with it while playing Chess using it. I agree that they are expensive. And I am happy that I bought my sets from them a good number of years ago.

2021年11月8日 · Given NOJ's price point, though, their sets are likely to be in the hands of moderately serious collectors and so won't come up for resale particularly often. Even if the spouse makes them slim down their chess collection it's likely that the NOJ will be one of the last offered up for sale.

2022年1月25日 · Another beautiful, perfectly crafted set by Noj. Great choice with the Minceta design. A unique and original Dubrovnik variant by Noj. Maple Walnut is a classic choice for boards, pieces and pancakes. The 57mm (2.25") looks like a nice fit. If you find it a tiny bit loose, I think you might find a traditionally sized 55mm board just perfect.

2017年12月18日 · For those interested in the scaling of sets and boards, I have taken Eyechess' measurements on his new NoJ Dubrovnik set and run them through my dimension table spreadsheet for 2"(51mm), 2.13"(54mm), and 2.25"(57mm) chess boards.

2024年10月8日 · After 1 year on the waiting list (19th oct 2023), I received my package at last. It is more beautiful than in the pictures. I am very happy. My chess set is a BCE Stage 1 Eastern set, in maple and walnut, with blue leather pads, stamped Rook and Knight, and extra queens The Knights are not the improved...

2021年4月1日 · Yes, high Noj price is discouraging which has made many turn to poor quality dubrovnik sets sold by other manufacturers at low pricers. Of course, Noj dubrovnik is not the most accurate copy of the original. The best quality and most accurate dubrovnik is made by Gabriel Coss but I don’t think he takes any more orders from customers.

2016年5月8日 · Without question, Noj Ltd of Slovenia makes the absolute best replicas of the original 1950 Dubrovnik Olympiad set and circa 1950-1970 Dubrovnik II Bobby Fischer set. A brief note, there is some evidence to suggest that the Dubrovnik II Fischer style set was actually made sometime shortly after the Dubrovnik Olympiad set.

2019年12月15日 · Foreword: I recently sold my HoS Zagreb 59’ and a few old sets/boards, reducing my collection down to just my Noj “BCE 2” and Noj “Tal 1961”; with a little extra cash on hand I sprung for a Noj “President”, which has captured my eye for quite some time.

2019年3月2日 · Thanks! The actual manufacture time of this set is about 3 weeks, however, the time it takes for Noj to actually fill the order depends on their workload. Noj uses DHL for shipping to Canada; it’s about 75-80 Euros for shipping from Noj to Toronto. I have two sets from Noj (BCE 2 and this Tal); DHL was used for both and they did a great job.
