I'm envious of your husband regarding his WWII watches. I don't have any mil watches...and the fact that during the mid 1980s when I entered military service (USN), we weren't issued a watch (see pic below)...so I have mil watch envy.
I haven't seen a canteen in the metal yet...it's interesting that you state that they're small...so I'm really looking forward to seeing a canteen in the metal at some point in the future. 馃憤
EDIT ADDITION: If @corn18 chimes in that he was issued a watch...I'll flip out. I was year group '87 and he was year group '88...so I'm guessing he wasn't issued a watch either...but then again I was AOCS and he was USNA...so who knows. 馃槈 I know @ChuckMK23 wasn't issued a watch and he was year group '86 (NROTC)...and we have cried in our Dunkin' coffee cups regarding the fact that we weren't issued watches. 馃檨 Now...If I were a betting man, I'd bet @JFingers was issued a flipping Rolex...because he is USAF...and everybody knows those USAF dudes/dudettes get all the cool stuff. 馃憤
