The SplitTimeField and the corresponding widget SplitDateTimeWidget show two select boxes with one for hour from 0 to 23 and the other showing minutes 0,15,30 and 45 (can be customized very easily).

Usage:

class TestForm(forms.Form):
    start_time = SplitTimeField(widget=SplitTimeWidget)
    end_time = SplitTimeField(widget=SplitTimeWidget)
