There seems to be another wrong assumption here.  Both, ls and
nautilus can show the time (not only date) of all files.  By default,
ls -l shows the date including the year if the file is older than 6
months, and the date without the year but with time, otherwise.

With GNU ls, you can use --time-style=long-iso to get minutes and
--time-style=full-iso to get the full time stamp including even
seconds and nano seconds for each file.

This has nothing to with the type of file system the file resides on.
The kernel hides the details of file systems, e.g. the time stamp
representation.  If offers the same interface for all file systems,
for ext2/3/4, vfat, iso9660, and all other file system types.
In this case, it is stat(2) defined by POSIX, which gives the file
time stamp as a POSIX time_t, i.e. in seconds.  Linux and GNU ls use
an extension that gives the time as POSIX struct timespec, i.e. in
seconds and nano seconds.
