My sister wants one, mechanical, not digital; preferably with a
repeating ring (personally, I think that's unlikely in a mechanical
one). She has limited use of one hand. Any favorites?

Not sure if this resource will help or not, but check with LS&S Group
(they're out of the Chicago area). I don't know if they'll have
something suitable or not, but maybe it'd definitely would be worthwhile
to check.

and more specifically for a mechanical timer (dunno if it's suitable or
not),

The LS&S Group is a very good resource, but as with all companies, it's
a good idea to shop around first to get the best prices.

A digital timer can be programmed with one hand. Battery operated. Can be
carried around in a pocket. A mechanical timer is so 20th century!
