Do you want a rucksack with zippers at the front or at the back?
If at the front, what about a LowePro Mini Trekker AW? It should fit all the things you mention, just that you will have to put th ewaterbottle inside, or let it dangle on the outside. Inside with oen of those aluminum trekker bottles shouldn't be a problem. The advantage is that it is small, but still packs an enormous amount of stuff (I've had 9 lenses and 2 bodies in there <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />), and on top of that it is weatherproof too. And not expensive either, I paid a little over 60 euros for mine).

If you want one with zips at the back, for extra theft protection, there is now an AW version of the flipside backpacks as well:

BTW, I have very good experiences with LowePro photo bags, and they are easily obtainable, hence my suggestions for LowePro backpacks. I'll leave any other brands to other people to recommend <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
HTH, kind regards, Wim
