The Aquarian Boots just need to be used. Equipping/unequipping them should have no effect at all. And they only work on a few special water tiles, which have a different colour if you pay attention (edited: if it isn't obvious, there are actually two different items... the boots being there just if you actually want to wear them. Probably you need to [re]use the boots once per map)
Falling thru the floor is just one of Som's charms. We could all go on a crusade to fix all the map tiles that can cause that, but it's not too likely to happen anytime soon (just an empirical assessment)
The clock thing is a Som bug. I'll be releasing a new Ex patch for DD soon, which I suggest your install if you plan to keep playing the game. In the next patch anyway an extension has been added to remove the clock from the menus... just so the game can feel that much less buggy. It will be a while before the clock can be properly fixed, but that will probably happen one day.
The Gladiator Sword is probably worth investigating... I wish you more success in persuading Todd to cleanup DD than I've had
PS: Som can't do events based on what the player has equipped. Some day it will be possible to extend Som to do so, but it may be another year or so (tops)
