What is the lug width of the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279174-0012?

What is the best strap for the Rolex Lady-Datejust 279174-0012?

For the Lady-Datejust 279174-0012 in white Rolesor, a 14mm vegetable-tanned alligator strap is the most fitting choice, complementing the white gold bezel with its natural grain and three-dimensional texture.
