You may use .toLocaleTimeString() with the new locales and options 
arguments [1]:

var date = new Date();
var options = {
   year: 'numeric', month: 'numeric', day: 'numeric',
   hour: 'numeric', minute: 'numeric', second: 'numeric',
   hour12: false,
   timeZone: 'GMT' // London - UK
};

console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString('en-GB', options));
// 06/01/2018, 14:57:25

Or use the Intl object from the ECMAScript Internationalization API [2] 
directly:

console.log(new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-GB', options).format(date));
