Is there an amount of music you can transfer to an Apple Watch?

I have just received my new 32 Gb iwatch 8 and am wondering if there is a limit on the amount of music it can take.

I appear to have missing tracks in albums and playlists even after repeated synchs on battery charge.

in settings it says I have used 5Gb with 25Gb available.

have I reached my limit. I hope not

thanks

Apple limits the amount of media storage (which includes music) to 25% of the total storage available on the watch. For a 32GB watch, that would mean no more than 8GB of music can be downloaded to the watch.


And fieryjack is right. There is no Apple Watch 8.
