touch .findcmp
sleep 300
find . -newer .findcmp

If you do not want to wait that long:

touch -t `
perl -e '@t=localtime(time-300);
printf "%02s%02s%02s%02s%02s.%02s",$t[5]%100,$t[4],$t[3],$t[2],$t[1],$t[0]'
` .findcmp
find . -newer .findcmp

The following seems easier:

touch .findcmp
perl -e '$t=time-300; utime $t,$t,".findcmp"'
find . -newer .findcmp
