There are new Autodesk products (AutoCAD LT or similar) for Mac OS and iOS, but I couldn't find a simple free DWG viewer for Mac.

A360 Viewer

AutoCAD's A360 Viewer is a browser based tool for viewing DWG files:

A360 Viewer Free online viewer - View designs in more than 50 file formats, including .dwg, right in your browser—no downloads or plug-ins needed.

Edit: 2021-11-26: A360 viewer requires Autodesk subscription to be able to upload and view .dwg files.

LibreCAD

LibreCAD is open source, free, and can read and write DWG files.

AutoCAD WS is a free app on the Mac App Store. I've never tried it.

    Has 16MB file size limit. And you have to register to Autodesk (or already have their account). Otherwise seemed okay. – akauppi Mar 18 '13 at 14:28

The free eDrawings Viewer for Mac claims to be able to read and display DWG files. The Microspot DWG Viewer also provides support for DWG files.

I don't have any DWG files to test these two products on at the moment, but they're worth a shot.

I did try the eDrawings Viewer for Mac but it doesn't allow do measurements and printing is not great neither. I finally found viewer which has all what I was looking for - ZWCAD Viewer. Get it from "cnet.com" as I couldn't find it on the ZWSOFT home page.

I've found "Fast Cad Reader" on Mac App Store. It is incredibly fast and easy to use. It is only for simple DWG file reading, does not have pro features but I think it is far by the best -just view- app available for mac.
