Default Edward V11 monogram badge on belt Buckle ?

I have come across a belt buckle with the monogram of King Edward V11 on the front. It has the motto DIEU ET MON DRUIT in a scroll under the monogram. I cannot find a regiment that wore this insignia, can anyone help identify what it was made for / worn by / or issued to?

Any help woulkd be much appreciated.

Regards
Brett

Thank you all for your replies, Peter you wouldn't happen to have a photo so I could compare it with mine. I've done an Internet search but cant find a picture of a Dragoon Guards Officers Belt buckle.

Any idea's on value? not wanting to sell it but would like to know I didn't pay too much.

Regards
Brett
