It all started in my dad's kitchen.

I'm Jason Monaghan, from Montrose, a small seaside town in the North East of Scotland. I started JJ Monaghan in 2017 and shot the first collection at home, with spare wallpaper as the backdrop.

Today some of your favourite footballers and actors wear our watches. We still design every one in Scotland, and I still run the company.

From a kitchen to the Scotland National Team.

We've made watches for Scotland players and staff, and launched the JJ Monaghan × Scotland National Team WC26 watch. We also did a one-off release with Celtic FC.
