WELLS FARGO
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
This record shows that the mark “WELLS FARGO” was once registered on the Principal Register but is now dead because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is Wells Fargo & Company, a corporation organized in California. The registration covered clocks and watches under class 014, with first use in October 1981. A similar name used for clocks or watches would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it is limited to that specific class of goods. The prosecution history shows the mark was published for opposition in August 1983, registered the same day, and later cancelled in March 1990. No oppositions, extensions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are considering a similar name for clocks or watches, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
