G-Shock's Unbeatably Affordable Watch Just Became as Pristine as Possible

Despite costing under $100, G-Shock's long-running 5600 Series is among the Casio sub-brand's best offerings. One of its big strengths is its expansive catalog of colorway options, ranging from mild to wild (like the recent Sith-like black-and-red drop).
However, the latest version, the G-Shock DW5600WW-7, is unique in that its colorway makes it perhaps the most minimalist in the entire lineup.
What sets this particular G-Shock apart is its complete and utter lack of color. This is about as pale as any of the brand's watches have ever been.
Over the course of the 5600 Series' history, there have been other white versions (including this currently available one). Still, they usually have a pop of color or stylistic flourish somewhere.
By comparison, this one is almost entirely devoid of even a speck of contrast, if not for its silver pushers, buckle and gray dial lettering. Of course, it still has the watch's signature display with its gray background and black digits, letters and icons.
Still, G-Shock's simply don't get more minimalist than this one. Of course, importantly, it is still a G-Shock — meaning it boasts at least the brand's signature baseline capabilities.
If you're wondering if this watch's absurdly low price means it compromises its abilities, don't. It still has the G-Shock name, and the brand stands by its offerings.
Like its siblings, this watch has a durable resin case (with a bio-based resin bezel) and an integrated rubber strap. It also boasts the brand's signature shock-proof housing, which can take a serious beating and keep right on ticking.
It also has mineral glass, a Super Illuminator LED backlight (with Afterglow), simple pusher operation of its onboard features and more.
Oh yeah, those onboard features include a multi-functional stopwatch, a timer, a full-auto calendar, multiple alarms and more — you know, G-Shock stuff.
It ain't fancy, but it gets the job done again and again and again …
The G-Shock DW5600WW-7 digital watch is now available on the brand's site for $99.

China calls for global 'consensus' on AI regulation
Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Saturday urged the international community to build a global consensus on artificial intelligence (AI) governance, highlighting security risks amid the raging tech race between Beijing and Washington. Speaking at the opening of the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai, Li said it is prudent to look at "how to find a balance between development and security [which] urgently requires further consensus from the entire society." Li also announced the creation of a Chinese-led body to promote global AI cooperation and open-source development to keep AI from becoming "the preserve of a few countries and a few enterprises." What is the tech rivalry between the US and China? The three-day WAIC event comes amid intensifying US-China competition in advanced AI technology. Just days before, US President Donald Trump announced the slashing of AI regulations to maintain the US' dominance in the field even as Washington continues to restrict exports of high-end chips to China, citing national security concerns. These restrictions are forcing Chinese companies to look for alternatives, with startup DeepSeek introducing an AI model in January that matched the performance of leading US systems, despite working on less advanced chips. Li, without naming the US, criticized monopolistic control and called for open access to AI technologies, warning of insufficient supply of AI chips and restrictions on talent exchange otherwise. "Only by adhering to openness, sharing and fairness in access to intelligence can more countries and groups benefit from (AI)," he said. 'AI a test of international cooperation' At the WAIC opening ceremony, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a video message that AI regulation would be "a defining test of international cooperation." More than 800 companies are participating in this year's WAIC, showcasing over 3,000 tech innovations. While Chinese firms like Huawei and Alibaba are the main entrants, international firms including US-based companies Tesla, Alphabet, and Amazon are also present. Edited by: Saim Dušan Inayatullah
