Check out the use-commit-times option in your client config.

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.advanced.confarea.html#svn.advanced.confarea.opts.config

You can't preserve the timestamp from the system that did the commit,
but when you check the files out they'll be given a timestamp matching
when the file was last committed to the repository.
