02 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "25" |
03 | wait(1) |
04 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "24" |
05 | wait(1) |
06 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "23" |
07 | wait(1) |
08 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "22" |
09 | wait(1) |
10 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "21" |
11 | wait(1) |
12 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "20" |
13 | wait(1) |
14 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "19" |
15 | wait(1) |
16 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = "18" |

What you would need to look into is a
for statement.
Let's take a look at how we would use it in this sense:
1 | for i = 1, 60 do |
2 | wait(1) |
3 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = i |
4 | end |
Let's break it down in english.
1 | Starting at 1, and ending at 60, do this: |
2 | Wait 1 second |
3 | Display the number we are at |
4 | restart until the number is 60 |
We can reverse this by doing the following:
1 | for i = 60, 1, -1 do |
2 | wait(1) |
3 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value = i |
4 | end |

As short as possible:
1 | for i=0,1/0 do game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.TimerZ.Value=60-i%61 wait(1)end |
I changed the while loop into an infinite for loop and set the value to 60-i%61 so it counts down from 60 to 0 and repeats.
