NSColorPanelResponderMethod category (informal protocol) on NSObject implements a method called changeColor:. So, you could override this method inside your class to detect the color changes for NSColorWell. 

@interface MyClass:NSObject 
 @property(nonatomic, strong) NSColor *lastColor;
@end

@implementation MyClass
  - (void)colorChanged:(id)sender{
    NSLog(@"Last color %@", lastColor);
    NSColor *newColor = [sender color];
    NSLog(@"NSColorWell changed color %@", [sender color]);
  }
@end

If you want to be able to keep track of the last font, then you would create a property and everytime the font changes, assign the new font to the property. This way you will be able to keep track of the last font.

    So, the colorChanged: method is triggered everytime you change the color, you could then store the value in some property to know the last change. – Sandeep Mar 03 '14 at 17:56
