Actually, Omega reports that their modern mechanical watches should be perfectly fine for playing golf! They conform to international standards for shock resistance that are supposed to be more than sufficient for the normal range of human activities--including non-contact sports.
If it wasn't, watch manufacturers like Rolex and Omega would have real problems from all their sponsorship of golf and tennis events and heavy use of sport celebrity endorsers like Ernie Els and Tiger Woods. If the products were not suitable for these activities, they would end up with a LOT of returned broken watches for warranty service.
