Something like this should work. A couple of things:
1) I changed the form field to a ModelChoiceField instead of multiple choice. You’ll want to use a ModelChoiceField to show the relationship. I changed this from MultipleChoice since, according to your model, you only want to save one choice. You can read more on ModelChoiceFields here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/fields/
2) In your forms, I changed the choice query to customer = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Customer.objects.filter(owner=request.user)
. This will filter for Customers of the specific user only.
forms.py
class AppointmentForm(forms.Form):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.request = kwargs.pop("request")
super(AppointmentForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
basedate = forms.DateField()
start = forms.TimeField(widget=forms.Select())
end = forms.IntegerField(widget=forms.Select())
customer = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Customer.objects.filter(owner=request.user))
views.py
def form_valid(self, form):
if request.method=='POST':
form = AppointmentForm(request.POST, request=request)
if form.is_valid():
appointment = Appointment()
appointment.user = self.request.user
basedate = form.cleaned_data['basedate']
start = form.cleaned_data['start']
duration = form.cleaned_data['end']
appointment.customer = form.cleaned_data['customer']
appointment.start = datetime.datetime.combine(basedate, start)
appointment.end = appointment.start + datetime.timedelta(minutes=duration)
appointment.save()
return super(AppointmentCreate, self).form_valid(form)
else:
form = AppointmentForm()

Finally I did it. The key was to override the get method of FormView class in views.py, rather than modifying the init in forms.py:
forms.py:
class AppointmentForm(forms.Form):
basedate = forms.DateField()
start = forms.TimeField(widget=forms.Select())
end = forms.IntegerField(widget=forms.Select())
customer = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Customer.objects.all())
...
views.py:
def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
"""
Handles GET requests and instantiates a blank version of the form.
"""
choices_start, choices_duration = self._get_choices()
form_class = self.get_form_class()
form = self.get_form(form_class)
form.fields['start'].widget=forms.Select(choices=choices_start)
form.fields['end'].widget=forms.Select(choices=choices_duration)
form.fields['customer'].queryset=Customer.objects.filter(owner=request.user)
return self.render_to_response(self.get_context_data(form=form))
