I would use a developer tool to backtrace the CSS rules for that element. The style could be coming from CSS rules. That is especially common for stuff that is displayed or hidden according to mouse hover where that is controlled via a CSS psuedoclass
If that is the case, there was a .hover method recently added to watir- webdriver in an attempt to address this, try firing that against the method first, then see if you can click it.
