I remember reading on a gadget magazine (stuff magazine) about a certain breitling watch with a finish from recycled metal from the world war machines. I don't recall the model name though, and this is where I ask for your help.

Maybe I am mistaken but I was pretty confident it was a breitling make. By my description can you make out make and model? I also remember it being priced at 7.500 eur.

Breitling has never made a watch from parts of decommissioned military equipment and I am not aware of another brand that has, neither is Google from a quick check.

Only one which springs to mind is that Chase-Durer make/made a watch which uses metal from decommissioned B-52 Stratofortress. Nothing like the price you quoted though.
