How about:

function getTime($date) {
    $timestamp = strtotime((string)$date);
    return date("m-d-Y H:i:s", $timestamp);
}

try {
  $date = new DateTime($textbox->getValue());
} cath (Exception $e) {
  $errors[] = 'Invald date format, please use Y-m-d H:i:s';
}


if (!($date instanceof DateTime)) {
   echo 'Variable $date is not DateTime object!';
}
