QTime::toString() for timer is better not to use. he would rather just to display time in a specific format. What to count elapsed time better to do so:

__int64 start = QDateTime::currentMSecsSinceEpoch();
/*
*
*
*
*
*
*/
 __int64 duration = QDateTime::currentMSecsSinceEpoch() - start;
 ui->label->setText(QString::number(duration));
