I spotted this watch on the net, also currently for sale , but i have never seen the logo thats on the watch before. I tried googling for some information, but nothing came up.
Just wondering does anyone have any info on this watch?

Unless someone recognises the logo it's anyone's guess. Breitling produces private commission LEs for hundreds of organisations every year.

Curious if it has anything to do with Southwest Airlines, WN is their IATA code.

Not Southwest Airlines. WN is their IATA code but not used by them for corporate use.

It's a great watch, but I wouldn't buy that with a random company's logo on it :|

According to clubbreitlingisrael, the logo is WTN and they also had an Aerospace produced in 2004.

Can't find out who WTN are.

this might be the right WTN ?

there seems to be quite an active Breitling connection:

Don't think it has anything to do with Waddington. They would have used the base crest, not a corporate logo.

+1. If that logo was anything to do with Waddington - it would relate to an on base club or association and there would be more pictorial evidence or description as to what club it is ie Waddington Nice Timepieces club (that doesn't exist but just to give you an idea). Such a club would be unlikely to have sufficient members to be able to order enough pieces from Breitling (quite often a Squadron will struggle to find enough personnel prepared to pay the kind of money required AND all agree on the same watch/design.
