SPRING, TX (August 25, 2025) — WATCHTOWER, the leader in designing and manufacturing premium American-made firearms, announces the launch of the APACHE Coyote, a stunning new evolution of the original, acclaimed APACHE double-stack 1911, now finished with a proprietary Matte Copper PVD coating.
The APACHE Coyote’s Matte Copper PVD finish delivers a rich, non-reflective tone—offering both battle-worn elegance and advanced protection against wear and corrosion. Built on the WATCHTOWER’s renowned craftsmanship, this edition retains the performance that made the APACHE stand out: tactical-profile grips, an intuitive double-stack magwell, a crisp trigger pull, and ambidextrous safety controls that come together for uncompromising handling and accuracy.
Precision machined from pre-hardened 4140 and 416R stainless steel, the APACHE Coyote features a 4.25-inch slide, a 4.6-inch barrel, and WATCHTOWER’s competition-ready engineering – making it a natural extension of the shooter’s hand.
“The new APACHE Coyote is a tribute to the legacy of our original APACHE 1911, now elevated with a proprietary finish that makes it truly one of a kind,” said Graham Kolymeyer, COO at WATCHTOWER. “We built this limited edition to perform at the highest level while standing out from anything else on the range. With only 100 being produced, each one is a collector’s piece ready for real-world action.”
