I think the more commonly used variant is

timer@10008000

without the 0x. While some dts files really use @0x they are in the minority.

Maybe this might convince you ;-)

"The GPT includes 5 32-bit timers and one 64-bit timer. Each timer has 4
operation modes, which are ONE-SHOT, REPEAT, KEEP-GO and FREERUN, and can
operate on one of the 2 clock sources, RTC clock (32.768kHz) and system clock
(13MHz)."
