Whether time exists independent of the mind or not, I don't even know exactly what that means. All I can tell you is, compare any two physical processes at relative velocity v to each other, with appropriate clock synchronization beforehand, and you will measure exactly the discrepancy in their rates as predicted by f'=f* sqrt(1-v^2/c^2).
Pfft. Yeah, like I'm going to spend an hour synchronizing all the clocks in my house - alarm clocks, wall clocks, desk clocks, watches, a microwave, the stove, the fridge, and the owl on the mantlepiece with a clock in its stomach.
Hard pass.
