Take a look at Uncle Seiko. They used to do bracelets for the Bellmatic but im not sure if they are suitable for that particular model.
I’m on the look our for a suitable bracelet for my Bellmatic 4006-7021 from 1969.
Do any of the seiko guys guys do a bracelet suitable for this watch or do I need to look out for a original from “the bay”

My 4006-7010, also from 1969, is on this, which I believe is the original bracelet for this model. I really like it. It feels much more solid than a regular beads of rice bracelet. I'm afraid I can't really help with a suitable modern strap other than by saying that I prefer vintage watches on a vintage bracelet. The 19mm lugs aren't ideal. But there are quite a few different styles and options out there for vintage Seiko bracelets in that size.
I have my Bellmatic on a bracelet from Aliexpress that looks quite a bit like the original Seiko one. Here’s a picture:
I can post a link if that is OK here.
I believe Tiger UK is a Bell Matic expert.
Hopefully he'll spot this thread, if he doesn't it might be worth dropping him a pm. He's a friendly approachable guy.
