Just when I was getting used to the Powermatic 80, here comes the Swissmatic.
As far as I know, the Swissmatic is a half-step above those Swatch autos from about five years back; they're both entirely machine-made and are intended pretty much as entry level autos. Unfortunately, I can't bring much to the table here regarding accuracy, as I've yet to talk to anyone who owns a watch with a Swissmatic.
I do really like the Powermatic 80, which in this context, doesn't mean a lot. But I do think the Swissmatic is intended as an "entry" auto, akin to an NH35 or whatnot.
