Don't reference the timestamp column at all in your INSERT (or future UPDATE) statements and the timestamp should update just fine on its own.
i.e. INSERT INTO Owners (NameID,ProductsKey,RegNum) VALUES ('$NameID','1','$RegNumc'); BTW, you cannot change the default for a timestamp column - it is always NULL (which displays as '00000000000000').
