I think time sense is best developed via setting intention.

If you set down to meditate, instead of using a timer you can set the goal of meditating for 20 minutes. That skill is trainable and with time you can get +1/-1.

It would also be interesting to couple on of those sleep stage based alarm clocks with a query for a guess of the current time when you awake.

Interesting. I don't meditate, but I'll try this in other contexts (probably in tasks related to giving talks) and see how my time sense improves.
