Default could a cell be refreshed automatically?

I am preparing a worksheet which deals with time. I have to enter current
time after frequent intervals. So I have made a drop down list and that list
is connected to the function =NOW(). That means when ever the list is
selected and the data is entered it should enter the current time. But it
does not reflects the current time, however; if I do it twice then the exact
time appears.
So my question is how can I refresh a cell automatically, so that I can
enter the current time in one go. Thanks.
