OCG Rulings
- You cannot activate "Spell Gear" if you have no "Ancient Gear Golem"s in both your hand and your deck. You can activate "Spell Gear" if you have no "Ancient Gear Golem"s in your hand, but you have one in your deck. You can activate it if you have no "Ancient Gear Golem"s in your deck, but you have one in your hand.[1]
Q&A Rulings
- Q: When "Ancient Gear Golem" is Special Summoned by the effect of "Spell Gear", can I activate "Pyro Clock of Destiny"?
- A: The effect of "Spell Gear" is an effect that counts turns, so you can activate "Pyro Clock of Destiny" and advance its turn count by 1. Normally, players who activated "Spell Gear" cannot Normal Summon/Set monsters until their next turn after activating it is over, but if the turn count is advanced with "Pyro Clock of Destiny", the turn in which Spell Gear was activated becomes the second turn and the effect that prevents you from Normal Summoning/Setting will expire when this turn ends. Similarly, if you activate "Pyro Clock of Destiny" during your next turn after activating "Spell Gear", the effect will end immediately. (So you can Normal Summon/Set that turn.)[2]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[3] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

- "'Ancient Gear' cards" means any card you control that has "Ancient Gear" in its card name.
- You cannot activate "Spell Gear" if you do not have any "Ancient Gear Golem" remaining in your Deck.
- If an effect is chained that prevents you from Special Summoning "Ancient Gear Golem", you still cannot Normal Summon or Set until the end of your next turn.
- The effect that prohibits Normal Summons or Sets until the end of your next turn is not a restriction on this card's activation. So you can activate this card if you Normal Summoned earlier in the turn. But you cannot Normal Summon or Set after it is activated.
