AngularJS - How to make a stopwatch starting at 00:00:00

Question

I want to create a stopwatch. I googled and got some tips on how to make a timer. Here is what I did in my controller:

$scope.value = 0;
$scope.startTimer = function() {

     $scope.value = 0;

    var change = function() {
        $scope.value += 1000;
        $timeout(change,1000);
    };
    $timeout(change, 1000);
}

And in my html display value in this format:

<label>{{value | date: 'hh:mm:ss'}}</label>

The problem is that the clock always starts at 04:00:00, and when I call the function startTimer(), it starts the timer in order, but I want the timer to be as follows:

00:00:00

00:00:01

00:00:02

....

Can someone tell me how to start a timer at 00:00:00?

EDITED: , $timeout $interval.
:

var app = angular.module("myApp",[]);
app.controller("myController",function($scope, $timeout, $interval){
   
   //timer with timeout
   $scope.timerWithTimeout = 0;
   $scope.startTimerWithTimeout = function() {
    $scope.timerWithTimeout = 0;
    if($scope.myTimeout){
      $timeout.cancel($scope.myTimeout);
    }
    $scope.onTimeout = function(){
        $scope.timerWithTimeout++;
        $scope.myTimeout = $timeout($scope.onTimeout,1000);
    }
    $scope.myTimeout = $timeout($scope.onTimeout,1000);
  };
  
  $scope.resetTimerWithTimeout = function(){
    $scope.timerWithTimeout = 0;
    $timeout.cancel($scope.myTimeout);
  }
  
  //timer with interval
  $scope.timerWithInterval = 0;
   $scope.startTimerWithInterval = function() {
    $scope.timerWithInterval = 0;
    if($scope.myInterval){
      $interval.cancel($scope.myInterval);
    }
    $scope.onInterval = function(){
        $scope.timerWithInterval++;
    }
    $scope.myInterval = $interval($scope.onInterval,1000);
  };
  
  $scope.resetTimerWithInterval = function(){
    $scope.timerWithInterval = 0;
    $interval.cancel($scope.myInterval);
  }
})
app.filter('hhmmss', function () {
  return function (time) {
    var sec_num = parseInt(time, 10); // don't forget the second param
    var hours   = Math.floor(sec_num / 3600);
    var minutes = Math.floor((sec_num - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
    var seconds = sec_num - (hours * 3600) - (minutes * 60);

    if (hours   < 10) {hours   = "0"+hours;}
    if (minutes < 10) {minutes = "0"+minutes;}
    if (seconds < 10) {seconds = "0"+seconds;}
    var time    = hours+':'+minutes+':'+seconds;
    return time;
  }
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="myController">
  <label>Timer with timeout: {{timerWithTimeout | hhmmss}}</label>

: $interval $timeout. $interval : $scope.timer = $interval(change, 1000);, reset: $interval.cancel($scope.timer);.
