CINDERELLA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark CINDERELLA is dead – it was registered on the Principal Register to Blancard & Co., Inc. (a New York corporation) for watches in International Class 014, but the registration was not renewed and expired on June 29, 1993. Because the only listed goods are watches, the closest area of concern for a similar name would be any watch‑related product or service; uses in unrelated fields such as clothing, entertainment or food fall farther from the scope shown in the record. The record does not give Blancard & Co. control over every use of the word “Cinderella” in the marketplace, only over the specific watch category covered here. The latest meaningful event is the expiration notice in 1993, and no further maintenance actions or renewal dates are provided. The prosecution history contains only routine registration and renewal entries and shows no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to market watches under a similar name, but the risk is much lower for other product types.
