That said, Ben 23 is from another timeline, as his dimension has it's own unique timeline. You see, the aforementioned time stream theory and multiverse theory are basicly the same thing. Even if not, like I said, Ben 23's dimension would still have it's own unique timeline... However, I should point out that Mad Ben's alternate timeline is referred to as a "world" by both the episode name and Wyatt as per his quote referenced in the episode's article.

Anyway, back on the main topic, it wouldn't make any sense for him to not have an Omnitrix. In fact, I think I just figured out where his armor came from: He had Grey Matter, and he hacked his omnitrix, meaning that like Ben with Ken's Omnitrix and the Biomnitrix, he could have used all of his smartest aliens to make the armor. Agreed, Ben 23 would have his own timeline. However because it's a Dimension instead it's a different situation. This was said by Derrick (and something mentioned just now by you as well), otherwise I wouldn't have made such a distinction.

I also agree it can get confusing but only if you look at it the wrong way. ;)

As you have also said back to the moment point and the point you are now raising. Why doesn't it make sense he doesn't have an Omnitrix?
