If you are referring to the champagne bottle traditionally broken during a ship's christening ceremony, it didn't break.
Because there was no champagne bottle used during Titanic's christening ceremony, as this was not the White Star Line tradition.
And people still ask themselves why the Titanic had to sink...
The first two have a direct line to how long it would take at a servant's wage to pay off the breakage...
Never heard of the wine bottle one
