Default 125th Napier Rifles

Hi. Just thought I would show a set of buttons that came with a KD jacket (in the pocket) that I recently acquired from the estate sale of Maj. Gen. T.W.(Dagger) Rees. They are jet black and only 2 are marked Grove & Sons.
From his time with 125th Napier Rifles. He was with them from 1916 through to 1918 (and presumably till 1922 when they changed names). I am not sure the KD tunic is from that time as it shows it was badged up as a Maj. Gen. at some point, but I dont know enough about ww1 KD tunics to be certain. The tunic needs 10 buttons and there are 10 buttons!?
Richard.
