Even though it seems that 拙 has a new "unified prononciation", every
Chinese people that I have met still pronounce 拙 with a second tone and
we -as foreigners who rely on dictionaries entries- look really stupid
pronouncing it with a first tone. So could you please at least disclose the
two different prononciations?

Editor: you mean "pronunciations".
Well, if that's is your only problem with tones, then you don't have to worry.
Also, make a wager with them. Show them a dict. Watch them turning green in the face.
