Short answer: the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Pro is a premium indoor music system, while the Sonos Move 2 is the portable, battery-powered alternative. Zeppelin Pro brings titanium-dome tweeters, an improved 24-bit DAC, a wide soundstage, and deep bass extension.
It has no battery or water protection, so its high price only makes sense for a fixed indoor location.
Move 2 has a warm balance, slightly clearer midrange than the original Move, and the freedom to travel around the home or outdoors. It is not especially loud, and the full-volume concerns noted for the original remain relevant.
Buy the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Pro if you want an indoor statement speaker with deeper bass and a larger stereo-like presentation.
Buy the Sonos Move 2 if portability and battery power are more useful than maximum output.
Water resistance is not close: the Sonos Move 2 is rated at IP56 (powerful water jets), well ahead of the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Pro at no water resistance.
