Apple Watch Photo Count Incorrect

Hi all,

New to the community and a new Apple Watch Series 4 owner!

I was looking over the General/About details for my watch and noticed that my photo count is incorrect. It shows I have 15 photos sync'd to my watch but when I go into the actual Photos app, there are none (it syncs to my Favorites folder on my phone but I have no photos saved to the folder on my phone). If I sync to another folder with photos, the count simply adds the number of photos from that folder to the ghost 15.

I've tried erasing and setting up my watch from new but am still running into this problem. I did update my OS to 5.1.1, but cannot recall if this was an issue prior to updating. Any ideas what might be the problem, or if anyone else is experiencing the same thing?
