I've had considerable experience with each. Both are extremely well made and well finished revolvers, as you said the "Rolls Royce or Cadillac of revolvers."
But, when Smith & Wesson introduced their Distinguished Combat Magnum, the Model 586, I went to this and never looked back. I had been shooting a very heavy (173 gr.) bullet with stout charges of H110 and #2400 powder in my Ruger Blackhawk, and this round would not chamber in either the Python nor the Model 27, without poking its nose out the front of the cylinder.
Maybe not the equal in finish, but I believe the Model 586 to be the best DA .357 Magnum to come out yet.
And, it ain't all that bad looking, either.
