What this record means

The record shows a live, registered Principal Register service mark owned by Carl Zeiss AG, filed on September 8 2023 and issued on February 25 2025; the most recent meaningful event is the notice of registration confirmation emailed on that same date. The registration covers “maintenance and repair services in connection with machines, apparatus and instruments for use in the electronics, micro‑lithography, semiconductor, integrated circuit, magnetic domain memories and integrated optical systems industries; repair of scientific, research, photographic, cinematographic, audiovisual, optical, measuring, testing, checking apparatus and instruments; repair of spectacle lenses, spectacles, microscopes, surgical microscopes, binoculars, riflescopes, spotting scopes, night‑vision devices, lenses, planetariums, planetarium projectors; repair, installation, maintenance, rebuilding, upgrading, retrofitting and refurbishing services in the field of medical equipment,” among other related items. A similar name used for comparable repair or maintenance services in those high‑tech and optical fields would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories fall farther from the scope shown. The prosecution history shows a standard examination path with a non‑final office action in May 2024, an extension granted in August 2024, and final approval for Principal Register publication in December 2024, but it does not indicate any supplemental‑register handling. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that will be used for similar repair or servicing of high‑technology or optical equipment.
