Vintage shopping in the Berkshires

Over the weekend, we went up to the Berkshires to relax.
on the way up we stopped at a few great antique stores.

I ended up getting this watch with clear scarabs on it that I thought was pretty awesome.
I hardly ever like watches, and I hadn't seen one like this.
It reminded me of these amethyst scarab earrings that my grandfather made when he was a jeweler.

Paid $36 for it (on sale from $45)

Then I saw this same design and maker on Etsy for $88! Now I feel like I got an even better deal.
I can't find any other clear crystal scarabs, though. I do see a lot of other multi-colored gemstone scarab bracelets and watches online though if you want one.

While in the antique stores, I was also tempted by these:
