Videotaped disc shaped craft in broad daylight

At about 1900hrs PST on 21 Sept 03, at the request of my wife, I walked out my front door to look at a strange object in the sky she had seen. The object was quite a distance away (very hard to tell how far) to the WNW of Las Vegas. It was relatively flat, disc-shaped and dark in color, but otherwise, it was far enough away that I couldn't tell what I was looking at. I ran back in my house and grabbed my video camera, absent-mindedly not planning to tape anything, but to use the zoom to get a better look at whatever it was. After I went back out with the camera and got it zoomed in on the object, it occured to me that taping it might not be a bad idea. I only got about a minute and a half of video. The object moves like nothing I've seen before...slowly tilting side to side and front and back on a center axis. Unfortunately, the video looks "wobbly" in places because of the extreme amount of zoom used, but again, you can clearly tell it's disc-shaped and possibly had either a hole or faint light source in the middle...might've also been a reflection, as the sun was to my southwest. Whatever it was, it slowly (relatively to me) moved off to the northwest until it dropped below my line of sight and according to my wife, faded behind one of the local western mountains.
