Doctrine 2 - How to use the Time column type

I am having a problem with Time column type : i have this part of my entity "Match" : 

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="date")
 */
private $creationDate;
/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="time",nullable=true)
 */
private $creationTime;

And every time i try to persist the entity i get the error :

Error: Call to a member function format() on string in TimeType.php

This is the part where i fill the CreationTime :

$time = date("H:i:s",strtotime(date("Y-m-d H:i:s")));

$Match->setCreationTime($time);

I tried to check the TimeType.php file and i found out that this function is the source of the problem :

public function convertToDatabaseValue($value, AbstractPlatform $platform)
{
    return ($value !== null)
        ? $value->format($platform->getTimeFormatString()) : null;
}

to be more sure i checked the AbstractPlatform class and found out that the member method getTimeFormatString always returns this string : 'H:i:s'.

So any body can help ?
