If devices like the antikythera were commonly produced, we'd find more of them, and descriptions of them. This looks like a one-off achievement.
I'd rather say that this maybe more like a Saturn-5 of the day: a top achievement that required extraordinary efforts, and not very reproducible because of that. Most things around and in its production chain were not nearly as advanced.
