You can set an editor and a date model like this:

SpinnerDateModel model = new SpinnerDateModel();
model.setCalendarField(Calendar.MINUTE);

spinner= new JSpinner();
spinner.setModel(model);
spinner.setEditor(new JSpinner.DateEditor(spinner, "h:mm a"));

Answer 2

Thanks for answering Guillaume. Your answer is working for me after making a small change i.e.

spinner.setEditor(new JSpinner.DateEditor(spinner, "h:mm a"));

This gives me an appropriate format.
