  <p>I tried to do by setting on the column config by this way:</p>
  
  <pre><code>// ADD DATE PICKER FOR COLUMNS CREATION TIME
            if(value.filterable.cell.dataTextField == "creationTime") {
              //preparedGridColumnItem.AllowFiltering = false,
              preparedGridColumnItem.format = "{0:dd.MM.yyyy}";
              preparedGridColumnItem.filterable = {
                ui: function (element) {
                  element.kendoDatePicker({
                    format: "dd.MM.yyyy"
                  });
                },
                cell: {
                  operator: "eq",
                  showOperators: false, // HIDE FILTER MENU
                  template: function (arg) {
                    arg.element.kendoDatePicker({
                      format: "dd.MM.yyyy",
                      change: function (e){
                        console.log("Change :: " + kendo.toString(this.value(), 'd'));
                        var timestamp = moment(this.value()).unix();
                        console.log(timestamp);
  
                      }
                    });
  
                  }
                }
              }
            }
  </code></pre>
