Of course what's interesting that I see no one pointing out is the fact that Apple didn't whine about this. I doubt seriously if Apple executives plotted to try to steal the Swiss Railway clock design. Likely what happened is the person who wrote the app saw a picture of the clock and used it.
I'm no fan of Apple, but rather odd how they didn't start saying you can't patent a round design with some markings on it. Instead, they said "Yep, you're right, we screwed up and here's your money".
You are right that it appears Mondaine is the exclusive licensee, however, that is a matter between SBB and Mondaine, not between Apple and Mondaine. SBB owns the design and if they licence it out in violation to an existing agreement with Mondaine, that is not Apple's fault.
