StatTrak™ XM1014 | Watchdog (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

Watchdog combines green paint with bronze metalwork and a lion motif under the rear sight and along the receiver. In Well-Worn the green is noticeably thinned on the barrel and stock edges, and the bronze parts look dulled and rubbed. The overall colour scheme still holds, which makes this grade an inexpensive way to own the design.

Item type: shotgun. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

The same quality also exists as the Souvenir version.

How the skin looks in Well-Worn

The barrel and the magazine tube are painted jade green with a fine textured pattern, broken up by a bronze band with carved detail near the muzzle end. The receiver and the ribbed pump are warm bronze, and the receiver side carries an engraved relief of lions, with another lion placed beneath the rear sight.

The green is worn through in patches on the barrel, the magazine tube and the stock edges. The bronze pump and receiver look dull, and the finer lines of the engraving start to blur. The grip shows rubbing on its edges. From normal distance the scheme is recognisable, but the weapon looks clearly used.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, bronze and deep green stickers sit naturally on this finish and echo its metal and paint. Placing them on the green barrel keeps the engraved lion scene on the receiver clear. Bright neon colours tend to clash with the calm ornamental look.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since a low float in Field-Tested looks much closer to Minimal Wear than a high one.
• Inspect the muzzle, the pump ribs and the receiver edges, as these parts show wear first.
• Look at whether the lion engraving on the receiver is still crisp, because it carries most of the skin's character.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change the look of the receiver area.

Who should buy Well-Worn

• Budget buyers who want the green and bronze scheme at low cost.
• Players who do not mind a used look on a shotgun.
• An affordable way to own the design.
