My time machine works, though not instantly - it takes approximately 60 seconds to travel one minute into the future.

Or we live in the timeline that leads to the invention of time travel, not the one the time travellers are visiting. Maybe the universe allows time travel but it always creates a divergent timeline when you use it.
