Colours can be Intellectual Property!

So sometimes one wonders where does Rolex get its inspiration from to make up new colour schemes.

We've seen Pepsi (blue & red).

But where did Rolex get its inspiration for the CHNR?

Yes, the "Copper Top" of course!!!

As a matter of law and colour combinations cannot be trade-marked but only if there is significant evidence put forward.

Thankfully the CHNR is not a battery or battery operated, however it does have a power cell of sorts (a spring).

For all those budding (and experienced) interlectual property lawyers, assuming that Duracell had a trade mark for copper/black, would there be a potential infringement by virtue of the colours of the CHNR?

Enjoy your day!!
