Coastal Artillery officer's cord tunic

Breeches

As a matter of interest when I got the green cord jacket, I also bought these breeches. They are made of the same cord material but the colour is slightly more grey. I assumed they were to be worn with this jacket. They are a simple pair of trousers with black fly buttons, grey/tan 'For Gentlemen' braces buttons and any externally visible buttons are the same grey/green of the material.
No makers marks are visible, there do appear to be some cleaners marks and possibly a sizing mark of 100/107.

The wider corduroy is seen with Heer tunics as well but not very often. This was used in WWI as well for landwehr and popular with SA etc.

This tunic and breeches in my opinion are for a Coastal Artillery officer and for field service. I do not think it was TSD. It may be French made.

Does anyone have photos of these jackets being worn, or can direct me to where I can examine some images?
