Why can't Apple, of all manufacturers, produce a watch that can last longer on a charge than one or two days?

Garmins easily last a week.

Knowing very little about the Apple Watch and Garmin, I would assume the goal of being a generic application platform means the watch needs to guarantee a higher level of cpu/gpu/sensor resources than a watch for fitness enthusiasts who only use it for tracking?

Or does Garmin have all the same apps as the Apple Watch or just a much better battery?

You are correct. The Garmin does less. They are different products.
