This is kind of a rare bird and one that for some reason I have a soft spot for. Bought many years ago; Nivrel 5 Minute Repeater. Love the numerals.

I have looked up this watch
By: sham1 : August 2nd, 2020-16:00
and it offers tremendous value. How does the repeater sound like? And does it keep good time?

Nivrel Quarter Repeater
By: panerai123 : August 2nd, 2020-17:29
Dear Sham, I believe its an ETA 2892-A2 with a Dubois Depraz repeater module, it works in quarters. Regards. Rafael

Thanks Rafael!

I believe it is a five minute repeater rather than a quarter repeater but I am curios if it sounds loud and clear.

It chimes the hours out and then the 5 minute intervals. For example at 3:58 it chimes three times for the 3 hours and then 11 double chimes for the 55 minutes. It does not chime the quarters and then the minutes like a full minute repeater.

I have a hearing loss (which saves me a lot of money) and can not hear most repeaters but this one I can. It chimes well and on the louder side.

Thsnjk you very much Ed for the clarification!
By: sham1 : August 2nd, 2020-19:30
That makes this 5 minute repeater somewhat a bargain. and I noticed that the tugs are quite short and curved so 42mm might even be wearable on my small wrist

I think so. It doesn’t wear large at all. It’s a really neat watch. Good looking and fun. [nt]

Aaah, too bad, or too good, because it may lead you to consider hunting very expensive birds... [nt]

Exactly my point! I’ve save a lot of money because of it. I would have loved a Grand Sonnerie. [nt]
