President's Note

Hans Scholl and his watches appearing in a Swiss newspaper.

The idea for the Almeda six-alarm Timepiece grew out of conversations with aging but active friends and relatives. Their ailments often necessitate taking regimens of medications at different times of the day and night. They longed for a way to be clearly reminded of these scheduled times. Later on, others said they'd like a multi-alarm watch to keep track of a busy day. Nobody wanted something that looked "medical," and everybody wanted privacy-hence the vibration alarm. This feature addresses the needs of hearing impaired people, too.

And nobody wanted to pay more than they would for a good, mid-range consumer timepiece. As a recently retired Swiss watch designer, I am proud to offer the Almeda Time Products personal and portable reminder system. A lifetime of dedication and know-how is in this product. I hope it can make a positive difference in your life. We are located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., the former home of the old and famous Hamilton Watch Company.

President
Almeda Time Products

All my professional life I was fascinated by the tremendous innovative and expressive possibilities in the miniature industrial design field. where function and shape form a very tight relationship.

My name is Hans Scholl. I've been designing watches for more than 30 years for leading watch companies in Switzerland and the U.S. (Omega Watch Company, Hamilton Watch Company and more.)

This extensive experience benefits this new, exclusive and unique product. The ALMEDA -- for ALarm, MEDical Alerts -- is the result.

It is my hope that this watch makes life easier for a lot of active people.
