So is this art of selecting right crystals is applicable for synthetic crystals also or these can be grown perfect each time to specifications?

I can't recall exactly but I'm pretty certain most crystal are synthetic these days, at least so for the common cuts. I'd imagine most watch quartz would be synthetic but that's only a guess.
