Obviously the "Arial.ttf" font is not installed on your machine. This font will be needed for the Watermark option in the LRTimelapse render dialog.
It should normally be in:

/Library/Fonts/Arial.ttf

Make sure to put it there (by default it is included in MacOS), after this you could try again.
Another option would be to render the video without watermark.

This worked perfectly. thank you very much.
