Images in the attached PDF suggest words or parts of words.
Figure out what each image means and combine to form another word
Some of the words represented by images are homophones.

2. bull + over = pullover???????
(Couldn't see where you got the hash brown from, but I suppose when you print it in black and white it does make it a bit less obvious!!)

Hash brown is right, but No.2 isn't pullover (slight clue in No.1) - remember the homophones.
Gees, you guys have nearly cleaned it up in a couple of hours. Guess I'll have to make the next lot more obscure.

Clue for No.2 - It's a brand name of one of the items in No.1
Clue for No.5 - the woman is having a whine or something similar.........

Close, what's another watchmaker with a similar name?
For No.5, image of woman represents 'moan', the actual part-word is a homophone of 'moan'

No. 5 must be pheremone (ferry + moan)
No. 2 is Bulover

All correct Pugwash. Well done to all posters
Bulova could have been represented by bull + eggs too.
Another similar one coming soon.
