Commentary for Berakhot 5:3
תרי תנאי אליבא דרבי אליעזר ואיבעית אימא רישא לאו רבי אליעזר היא:
There are two Tannaim in the sense of R. Eliezer. Or if thou wilt, I can say that the first part of the Mishnaic statement is not R. Eliezer's.
Abraham Cohen Footnotes to the English Translation of Masechet Berakhot
According to this explanation, only "until the end of the first watch" in the Mishnah are the words of R. Eliezer.
