It might be some form of associative symbolisme. Here in Canada, a narrow silver band on the pinky means you have a Bachelors of Engineering. Most people don't know this, only those who are familiar with the ceremonies.


Yup, the Order of the Engineer, I'm a member of the US Order. Members wear a stainless steal ring on their working hand's pinkie finger. To wear it means they've taken an oath like a doctor's Hippocratic Oath.
