Telling the time in German is often a little weird for non natives but the system is actually quite simple.
You always tell the time with respect to the next full hour with „resolution“ of 15 minutes.
16:15 = Viertel Fünf
16:30 = Halb Fünf
16:45 = Dreiviertel Fünf.
There are regional differences, though. Sometimes 16:15 is „viertel nach vier“.
If you want to be more precise than 15 minutes the next level is 5 minutes resolution. Tell it with respect to the closest fix point from the 15min level.
16:20 = fünf nach viertel fünf
16:25 = fünf vor halb fünf
16:35 = fünf nach halb fünf
If you want to be even more precise you simply tell the exact time.
16:22 = sechzehn Uhr zweiundzwanzig

It's correct.

fünf vor halb fünf = 4:25 or 16:25

@TomNeumeier Yes, it depends on the region of Germany.
People in Western and North Germany won't understand:
Viertel Fünf (16:15) Because we won't know if you mean Viertel vor Fünf (15:45) or Viertel nach Fünf (16:15).
Dreiviertel Fünf (16:45) is even more confusing for us. We would use Viertel vor Fünf (16:45).
