Nivrel 5 minute repeater.
This is a very nice watch and a good value. The repeater works well and has a very nice sound! This one is in gold.
I have looked up this watch
and it offers tremendous value. How does the repeater sound like? And does it keep good time?
Nivrel Quarter Repeater
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!
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
May I politely ask
if you purchased it via their online shop or via an AD because I doubt I can find one in Malaysia?
I would like ...........
....... to see the real watch. It's looks great to me. Hope the present COVID-19 pandemic is over soon, and we can travel once again.
