Timer field is invisible in OOB configuration, i.e. no new fields can be created as a timer field. Check Field Classes (sys_glide_object) table to verify that.

But you can make it visible by running a Background script:

var gr = new GlideRecord("sys_glide_object");

gr.addQuery("name", "timer");

gr.query();

if (gr.next()) {

gs.log("found");

gr.visible = true;

gr.update();

}
