G-SHOCK
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “G‑SHOCK” is no longer active; it was cancelled on July 17 2010 because the registrant, Casio Keisanki Kabushiki Kaisha, did not file a required declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register in December 2003 for the class of automobiles (class 012). Because the cancellation was based on a Section 8 failure, the mark is not currently enforceable under the USPTO. The goods listed—automobiles—represent the closest area of concern; a new name that is similar and used for cars or related automotive products would raise the highest risk. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the automotive connection remains a notable concern.
