Kind of apples and oranges here, but if pressed I'd say an out-of-the-box CZ-75 would be more more reliable than a similar priced out-of-the-box 1911 in most cases.
Many 1911's tend to need a break-in period, CZ-75's usually don't, and it's much more likely that a 1911 may be supplied with a bum mag that can cause problems.
That said, they are both a quite different in their design, and while external versus internal slide rails are both proven accurate, you're comparing a single-action trigger design thats designed to be tuned to be crisp and creep free to a DA/SA design that is known to have varying degrees of an unsavory "trigger-camming" characteristic and an amount of trigger take-up that cannot be removed...
These days, the single-action design is more often associated with precision accuracy than with "combat accuracy", so it kind of makes sense that those guns may come with tighter tolerances that need to settle in.
Now, a broken in, well tuned 1911, and a CZ-75 that are both properly maintained should both run trouble-free.
