Lug width for Zenith Elite Chronograph?

I think I have spied my next watch. Does anyone know the lug width for the Zenith Elite Chronograph? Anyone pick one of this incredible watches up? Thoughts?

Lug width would be a determining factor which would mean that you buy it, or pass?

Not sure, it may. I love the watch and have decided to get it. (So it probably won't) I have a Zenith El Primero Striking 10th. Zenith lines their watch bands with a rubber lining that I have found I am very allergic. So I will need to pick up leather straps. I have 21mm and 20mm straps already. If the watch is either of those I am good to go. I can't find anywhere on the net measurement for the lug width on the watch. I was wondering what people who have it, think of the watch. The only negative thing I have heard is that it may be a little thick for a "dress" watch. I also wonder how readable the metal hands are on the dial. But - I have purchased watches never having tried them on. Foolish, I know. A link to this set of pictures - warning you may desire to buy this watch if you do...

I found out via another site that the lug width is 21mm on the Zenith Elite Chronograph. Same as the Zenith Striking 10th. Since I have the Striking 10th that will be perfect, except finding 21mm straps are a pain.
