It's reasonable to call it a special purpose (mechanical) computer, technically, but most laypeople don't know what that means.

The Clickspring guy from Youtube is doing a series on the Antikythera mechanism, where I suppose he's trying to reproduce it with period tools. I haven't watched any of the videos from that specific series but his videos are usually excellent.
