After allegations that Apple was copying the classic Swiss Railway clock design for its new Clocks app in iOS 6, Apple was expected to meet with Swiss Federal Railways SBB to presumably find some sort of resolution.

There is also no word how this might affect Mondaine, the watchmaker that currently has rights to the design for its watch faces, but it looks like Apple won’t have an issue using the design in iOS:

Another case of potential copyright infringement that Apple will have to avoid is a lawsuit launched by Sabine Liewald of Switzerland over a close-up photograph of an eye used in Retina MacBook Pro advertising. PatentlyApple has all the details.
