I think the Omnitrix must have exploded during Eon's version of Secret of the Omnitrix. In this version Azmuth refused to depower the Omnitrix, and Ben unlocked the Chronian form. The watch exploded while he was still transformed, but he managed to escape from the explosion (and probably into another universe) using his time manipulation.

It makes sense then that he'd turn evil, after seeing all the Bens that still had their families and Omnitrixes when he didn't. It also explains why he never tried to steal an Omnitrix (one caused his entire problem, so he probably doesn't trust them); why he hates Paradox so much (the man with infinite power over time, who didn't bother to help, at least in his eyes); and possibly his entire motive (gaining full control over time so he can fix his universe/ get revenge on all other universes).

Eon's possibly the most tragic Ben really.
