How to apply stat clock on non civilian grade weapons?

[Dragonborn]

I saw someone having stat clock on their weapon, and their weapon have higher rarity than civillian... How could I apply stat clock on non civl grade skins?

You can't, hence why it's called a Civilian Grade Stat Clock.

you can't apply a stat clock to non-civilian grade weapons

you have to perform a trade-up with 10 civilian grade weapons that already have a stat clock applied, and hope you get the skin you want
(you can influence the odds of what you get by only using weapons of one collection/wear, though)

why Valve didn't just go the simpler route of allowing you to trade up civilian grade clocks into freelance grade clocks I'll never know
