Firstly, the correct value for that default would be "now()" as any word followed by "(...)" is treated as a function. 'now' in quotes is treated as a string and is totally invalid for a field which is supposed to hold a timestamp.

Secondly, you should remove "now()" from the default value in the Data Dictionary and set the "Auto Insert" property instead.
