Obviously, you need currying. See Perl 6. Or create your own subclass with its own now() method that passes the argument for you. Or create a function that calls it for you, passing your default arguments, and returning the result. In fact, make it a code reference, and you will for all practical purposes have a curried version of the constructor!
