The watch will not work alone. It must be paired with an iPhone. You can set up the watch on your iPhone, but its features for an adult will be limited and he may have access to your text messages, etc. For example:
The following features and apps are not available using Family Setup: Medications, respiratory rate, irregular heart rhythm notifications, ECG, Cycle Tracking, Sleep, Wrist Temperature, Blood Oxygen, Audiobooks, Remote, News, Home, and Shortcuts.

Your husband really should have an iPhone to take full advantage of Apple Watch.
