I think this isnā€™t really about copyright on ā€œGMTā€ itself, but rather Facerā€™s own platform rules. They probably block it to avoid any issues with real watch brands and to stay on the safe side legally. Since itā€™s their platform, theyā€™re free to decide what they allow or not, even if it seems stricter than the law. Maybe contacting Facer support about this might be the best way to get a clear answer.

my design below has just been removed, after it was online for two years already. I just renamed and tried to update the publication. Then I received the infringement email:

Should Iā€™ve named it ā€œFat & Slimā€ instead?!? What a comedy showā€¦

Iā€™m curious if and what the team responds to my appeal, I only got the automatic reply asking for my phoneā€™s model and version etc. which is totally irrelevantā€¦

[Edit]
I renamed it and apparently ā€œd!ckā€ is an infringement, although it is a regular german word in a german title. Another similar layout didnā€™t get rejected but also didnā€™t get published for unknown reasons, a.k.a. WFF problems. Iā€™m 5% before leaving the whole platform. If only there was a way to rescue my designsā€¦

Yes, has happened to me too!
I have become careful to be as generic as possible in the description. Also in upgrading an old watch faceā€¦

On the WFS form you get a refusal to post your message if you use the word Analogue in the text . It flags that you have used the word Anal . @s.w . Donā€™t give up . They are working on Bots that Can Teach the present Bots to get it all right . We know they will be successful because they have many more fingers to type with than we do . Maybe you can add Dick to the Wiki . Or I will do it .

I went numerical on my naming. I was doing like you but I was running out of names. I started using MAG and a four-digit watch number that just happens to being short form of Mr Antisocial Guy # 1,234.
