I finally used:

def mkdate(text):
    return(dt.datetime.strptime(text.decode('utf8'),\
            '%H:%M:%S %d/%m/%Y'))

and

data = np.genfromtxt(\
            os.path.join(sys.argv[1],f),\
            delimiter=',',\
            skip_header=4,\
            usecols = (0, 1, 2),\
            dtype=(object, float, float),\
            converters={0: mkdate},\
            autostrip=True,\
            )

Thank you!
